I would like to begin a thread within this section related to possible deep connections between Prime Numbers/Mersenne Primes and Kissing Numbers.

May I have the permission of the special moderators to begin such a thread?

This request is in response to statements by, moderator, Rpenner, that there is already an alternative sub-forum upon this forum for more "alternative imaginings."

I do not believe this to be the case, but with your cooperation, perhaps we can get one going.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Kindest Regards,
Raphie Frank

To the moderators:

I plan to begin a thread within this section of the Physorg Forum (as noted above), near term.

I do NOT expect sudden moderator intervention after failure to respond to the above, very simple, question for the better part of a month.

Best,
Raphie

Actually I concur on this point.

I have already expressed the idea that this forum would be well served with a specific area for "crackpot" theories. That way, anyone engaging in a discussion there knows what to expect going in.

It would also clear up a lot of threads that really should not be included in a science forum ... such as the interminable series of inane theories by sOcratus, etc.

Of course, the admin might want to name it something more ... diplomatic.

Comments regarding "diplomacy" aside, perhaps you missed this part of my previous post, Rob...

QUOTE (Raphie Frank @ Jul 10 2009, 05:15 AM)
What should NOT be conveyed?

E) This is a  "separate but equal" zone ala Deep South America circa 1952.

As such, the word "crank," in IMHO should be no more incorporated into any name regarding a sub-forum for free thought than words such as the "n"-word should be incorporated in regards to matters pertaining to basic human dignity.


Points, however, for honesty and transparency.

Best,
Raphie
