I am limited to library comp use now, but if I can print this tomorrow at the local one (at the college one now) I will take a look at home and prepare comments.

Gnomon - time to move on

Smallfrey has already removed this entry from Peer Review, but I'm sure he'd welcome your comments anyway.

Okay. Well, the library's printer is out of service until a new part comes, and I don't have time to read at the library; so I will say what is worth saying at some later date. Thanks for the info.

Oh, shoot! I guess he did not like his work (?). Printer here fixed, but he deleted.

Well, at least I know smallfrey did not delete his whole account. If you are interested in mathematics, particularly computational mathematics and most particularly the Collatz Conjecture (or 3n+1 Problem), he is expert on some stuff and has a number of guide entries he has not deleted, I believe including ones that were also ultimately rejected by peer review. I don't have much time online to do anything to assist him, but his problem with peer review seems to be in not targeting his audience well. Writes too much for a specialized mathematical audience. Maybe you would be interested in helping him 'dumb his writing down' (as he would probably regard it) on some topic, Happy Nerd. Since Gnomon apparently already has a Collatz Conjecture entry, he probably should consider a different topic unless he has a well-thought-out reason for putting additional material on that one up to peer review in the future.

Thanks Icy. I'll try and look at this tomorrow.
