*I would like to join this. Is it alright if I live in the UK? Your profile suggests that you live in the US, but I am always eager for maths. [[User:AungSein|AungSein]] 18:13, 5 August 2007 (EDT)

:: That's fantastic.  Of course you're welcome in the UK.  You have great colleges there, and produced some fantastic physicists.  Please help build a curriculum (see above).  Lord willing, maybe we can make some inroads into some unsolved problems.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 19:29, 5 August 2007 (EDT)
