All the mathematicians are debating is whether someone has rigorously proved it. Using your example, wouldn't it be a simple experiment to attempt to find A, B, and C in parallel using a brute-force technique and a Riemannesque search? Then with enough repetitions using different values of A, B, and C, we'd find out?
Granted, I'm an experimentalist at heart...

Does not look like anything I need to pay attention to, that's for sure. If the smartest math guys in the world can't figure out what someone may or may not have figured out, I sure aint gonna understand it.

I was wondering what the seven mysteries were. If you make a living using one of the seven mysteries, wave your slide rule.
That reminds me - I've got to write up a capital expense justification for another magic wand ...

I prefer the swimsuit edition of Quantum Mechanics Monthly Hahahaha. :-) When I worked at an Optics company, there were jokes such as one of those cheap advertising type molded magnifying glasses: The handle was labelled "Quantum Wrench".

Suddenly all cryptic codes could be breakable. Big deal, we can just switch to pig latin.
