You've gotta love it when you catch an error in your initial analysis, when trying to finish up.

An error that, while minor, and won't cause any problems now, is still an error.

But it was an error that got you thinking along the lines that made the whole thing click in the first place.



If I hadn't made misread something at the very beginning, and made that error, the conceptual leaps that ended up forming the core of my work wouldn't have been nearly so forthcoming, I don't think.

Heh.

That reminds me of the quote that says something like

the sound of scientific progress isn't "Eureka!", it's "Huh. That's strange."

Whatever works, as they say.

Oh, and I'm a few days late, but congratulations on completing your epic.

Who's playing the lead when it's turned into a major motion picture? ;)

Be &%*$ing grateful that the error you discovered didn't invalidate the whole thing at the 11.9th hour!
And STOP THINKING AND DEFEND ALREADY!
