[PeoplesRepublicOfWashington]

I must confess to being white Euro-American trash overly influenced by our colonial legacy. Please accept my apology.

I'm a bit afraid to ask what Yoruba math is. Am I worthy of knowing?

If memory serves, it was a satirical concept put forward many years ago by one of the terrific columniss who used to write for the old Washington Star. He also, as I recall, did a story on the space program in one of the African republics in which they sought to put a man on the moon by positioning him in an old tire in a monstrous sling shot made of indigeneous rubber. That sort of truth is, of course, no longer allowed.
