Re: your math friend's comment: When one says that mathematics is a
human construct he does not thereby imply that we can change the listof
prime numbers! Mathematics, like physics, is a human description of
reality. It is the description (ie. Mathematics or Physics) which is
human, not the reality being described. (I think this is where Idepart
from the postmodernist school, although I can never stay awake long
enough to understand such needlessly complicated philosophicramblings.)
