Remember that a proof of P=NP by presenting an algorithm would contain a
proof of correctness of the algorithm.

Patricia

Proof is worthless if people won't accept it.

I learned that from hard experience as I have mathematical proof that
has passed formal peer review at a mathematical journal and passed
muster prior to that with a leading mathematician at my alma mater
Vanderbilt University, as before my paper was published in the now
defunct journal SWJPAM, I worked through the main argument on the
chalkboard--at his request--of Ralph McKenzie, who is also a professor
emeritus at Berkeley.

See: http://math.berkeley.edu/people_faculty.html

Had a cordial conversation with him and was shocked when he just kind
of said ok it was time for him to go home. Later he emailed me saying
it was a nice visit and suggested some books I might read and I went
off on him as in an angry, very hostile reply as I was flabbergasted.

You may believe that if I prove that P=NP that it will matter but I
have multiple mathematical proofs where it has not mattered:
publication didn't matter, talking with a leading mathematician didn't
matter.

I know you are wrong.

To see what happened to my paper again I send people to the web, you
can do a search on SWJPAM, or go to the following links:

http://www.emis.de/journals/SWJPAM/
http://www.emis.de/journals/SWJPAM/vol2-03.html

Those are EMIS archives as the United States to my knowledge has no
one that wanted to keep the record of this journal and the papers
published in it over 9 years. So a European agency came in and did
the work.

That's the real world Patricia. Not fantasy. Not some belief about
how things work, but reality.

Can you imagine? A revolutionary paper with absolute mathematical
proof that ends up quietly destroying a mathematical journal when
mathematicians do not behave as they should, but the hosting
university which is Cameron University removes all evidence of its
existence and the journal might have disappeared from the world except
for a European agency (if I'm wrong on this please someone give more
info showing it) so that it died from the entire United States of
America.

I've determined that class issues are the best explanation.

Proof is not enough.

I did Class Viewer partly because of that and see where that has got
me. I found my prime counting function and see how much impact that
had. I have piled result on top of result leading up to proving P=NP
as I've been amazed at this situation and getting here I realize that
absolute proof is not enough.

There is no way to use mathematical proof to get past the blocks as it
is not about proof, but social stuff.

And no matter what I prove the social stuff doesn't change.
