Dear Categories+Sheaves
WOW, I think were singing from exactly the same song sheet, The link( http://www.thebigquestions.com/2012/02/08/rock-on/), yes that is what I think I may have found a pointer towards. It will take me a little while to draw up some new graphs to try to make it clearer what I think I have found.
When I mentioned Euclid it was not to say the maths was not real, but it seems evident to me that the definitions he was using were designed to apply it rather than examine the thing itself.
I did not know anybody was even thinking about maths that way, thank you so much!
