For the physics fellow that I talked to, walking to the Beer SIG.

I've finally clarified that uncertainty on dimension transforms. 
It seems the the dimension transform is implicit in the proof, 
even if one could avoid dealing with it head on. Once one lets 
go of the frightening messes the transform leaves in its wake, 
one can see there's an aesthetic to it. Failing that, I think 
it'd make a lot of mathematicians want to barf. 

For conventional switching systems, the transform takes a 
clean pattern, and produces another nice, clean pattern. 
To some people, I guess, it'd seem like that with Goldbach. 
Maybe soon I'll get see it that way too - but at what cost?  ;-)
