JSH: Critical mass

My last post is about showing how mathematicians directly impact the physics field with what I think are rather bold lies.

But how do they succeed?

Well, why would any physicists check p mod 3, where p is a prime other than 3 to see if you get a random distribution?

That's a mathematician kind of question.

And for them that is a dangerous question as what I'm sure is the truth takes away federal funds for research.

And what cushy funds those are as there is no possible answer if you deny randomness, so they can work indefinitely.

Talk is one thing but statistical analysis is another.

Is there a pattern in p mod 3?

If you can prove it is random, then you can take out the mathematicians, and wreck entire careers of people who got away with taking money to muddle around in an area where the simplest answer, is random.

I think there are a critical mass of mathematicians willing to lie about math for money which is how they can do this and go to sleep at night, never worrying about getting caught because, well, because people TRUST them.
