I'm sure that chocolate will pop up if you keep on trying :-).

I intend to give it a good try. Am editing a chocolate post this morning. Evil grin.

Anjo

Nancy, That is the "symbol level". There must be levels above it :-). So, what is the next best thing (compared to chocolate, or whatever) one level up? If you can think of anything, let me know ...

Hi Anjo,
Tantalised by this seeing and seeking divide - lots of the mathematicians (seekers) I know doodle, use diagrams, etc to see the solution (i.e. where to seek). Do you think perhaps seekers try to see first?

Anjo

Hi Piers,
Of course I had not considered doodling, and now that you make me think of it, I realise that these days I doodle a lot less than previously.
Hypothesis 1: doodling is a mechanism for communicating between seekers and seeers. Hypothesis 2: there is no reason for pure seekers/seeers to doodle to get the work done.
