Re: A proposition equivalent to axiom of choice

Article? No.
Book? Try Rubin and Rubin's Equivalents of The Axiom of
Choice, or a similarly titled tome.

A proposition equivalent to axiom of choice

mat...@hofstra.edu (Mike) — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 00:16:39 UT

Hi all,
Wikipedia's article on axiom of choice states that Tarski proved
that the statement if X is infinite then X is bijectively equivalent
to XxX is equivalent to axiom of choice. I know how to prove that AC
implies X=XxX for infinite X. I am curious to know the proof in the
other direction. Does anyone know a reference for this? It seems

I often have difficulty explaining my logic to other people. I'm not
sure if that is because they're dumb or prejudiced or because I'm not
explaining it well. In this particular case, you're putting up a straw
man.
The connection between 'the metric system' and 'white guilt' can not
be made in a single step, and you're asking as though it should.

This can not be considered a reliable test.
Probably your true IQ is somewhat lower that that. By the way, cranks
(like you) normally do have higher-than-average intelligence.

But wind pressure is not. Then it's the same as aether pressure after
all.

Clearly you do not take yourself seriously .. noone saying the nonsense you

Yes, I know. You're incompetent with a newsgroup reader, and so if
people don't carry water to your lips, you will ignore them.

Really? The plane is traveling at 550 mph through the aether, so your
hair is traveling at 550 mph relative to the aether. The ventilation
system pumps air at 2 mph relative to the aether. And the hair doesn't
move?
Are you sure? I think you'll be surprised if you actually do this.

Thanks!
I would consider a theory where the only models are less
than a certain finite cardinality to be an ultrafinite theory.
Could you point me to references about such theories?

Correction: Dear PD, the Parasite Dunce: Wind resistance is
proportional to the frontal area of the hair. *** Pressure from ***
ether flow is independent of the frontal area and is in proportion to
the average density of the hair. The ventilation system inside planes
causes more hair motion than the flowing ether. Budding scientists

Does the aether vanish when the matter which is Jupiter occupies the
space previously occupied by the aether? Of course not. The aether
does not vanish. The aether does not disappear. The aether which
existed in the three dimensional space prior to the matter which is
Jupiter occupying this same space is displaced. The aether is

Your post is responding to my post. If you don't want me to respond to
your posts then don't respond to mine.
The title of this thread is stating gravity is "the PUSH of flowing
aether".
A better description of gravity is the pressure associated with the
aether displaced by massive objects.
