Had a dream. I saw The Book. It was large like a dictionary. I opened it. It was full of drawings of flowers and vines. Not a single equation or = sign. Not a single number. I pondered this. Then someone showed me each petal, leaf, stem, vine, had a meaning. A fractal, infinite set, summation, all elegantly contained within each element. Not the math of humans. Baseless. The math of nature. The math of DNA. Sets of instructions, self propagate, to determine the outcome.

Finished book cover to cover. Very good. I think Erdos was more of a "Rain Man" than anything else. Idiot Savant type. But not as bad as most Savants.
