Fred,
Funny that you should mention "set theory".
As a freshman at Case Institute of Technology in 1959, we were subjected
to "Geunther's Green Book" which was an attempt by the author to have
the freshman math students "scrub" his efforts at writing a textbook on
set theory - we got the "textbook" a chapter at a time on copied paper
in a green binder. Needless to say, we were at times confused, but
after a year of that effort I think we may have learned something, but
to this day I am not sure of the math of it all. It either fits within
the bounds of a set or it does not - seems more like a merging of logic
and math to me, but then logic was closer to what I was perusing than
the math equations.
