backwards E

I don’t know how much weight I’d give to this study. But it reminds me of a joke we had in mathematics at Sydney University in the early 80’s. It went like this:

∀∀∃∃

Translation: For all upside-down A’s, there exists a backwards E.

I didn’t say it was funny.

  3. Well I’m glad someone liked it. We thought it was highly amusing in 1982 or so. Sort of sums up the entire absurdity of mathematics and logic in one tiny utterance… I love it.
