There have been structural failures. There's no evidence that these were caused by using standard algebra. If standard algebra were the cause, you would expect a lot more failures than that, because it is used hundreds of times a day by the engineers who are making new products, building bridges, cars, etc. We should expect THOUSANDS of failures every day from all over the world.

Without even hinting that you might be wrong, can you please answer the following questions clearly with a "yes" or "no"?

A) Do you actually think algebra itself is a total waste of time and effort?

B) Do you accept at least that I'm using the same math that every other technical person on the planet is using?

C) Do you understand that you're not just disagreeing with kallog and me - that you are actually disagreeing with EVERY scientist, mathematician, and engineer on the planet?

D) That is, do you understand that even the scientists and mathematicians that you applaud use math the same way that kallog and I do?
