You need lots of claims to get good maths.

Ah fuck thats the first one. Let me try his next one:

You can't prove your maths doesn't have a fact which is both true and false.

I find it cool that all the text you wrote here is too made just of short words, and you kept that rule through this new text as well ;)

Damn it's hard to write this way, as all the words in -ing are too long for one, but I think the word I missed the most is "ev en". (Yes, I put a space so that it's two short words and not a too long one. You may call that a cheat but eh, how should I talk of the words I can't write if not with such a trick.)
