This thread is a bit of a change of pace from most other threads in this board. I want to know, what do you guys name your ships? I goof around in game quite a bit, but I do like having decidedly more "serious" names for my ships.
Dominix - "Edge of Dawn"
Dominix #2 - "Caprica"
Brutix #1 - "Burn Down The Sky"
Brutix #2 - "Siege The Day"
Myrmidon #1 - "This Providence"
Myrmidon #2 - "Against Today"
Ishkur #1 - "Radiance"
Bunch of others I can't be arsed to look up at the moment, but feel free to share ship name's you're proud of, or think are funny, whatever. Of course, if this bombs, I'll just change the topic to "x vs y" and let everyone slug it out like normal :P

Lack of proper math symbols on the forums sucks. The "/e" is the "not an element of" symbol. Now think about it again.

Lol, at least this isn't real life, where people see I'm Asian, and automatically assume I'm good at math :P
Seriously, I don't get it, I'm terrible at math :(

The last one is the easy one: "A crete says: 'All crete lie.'" Classic paradox that is solved if you don't mix up the assertion with the meta assertion, means the fact over itself. For if you mix this up you get the paradox.
Basically the same paradox if you claim someone or something or a higher beeing is allmighty. Allmight is a paradox for you have a mixup of assertion and meta assertion. "Can you build a moutain, that is so high, that even you can't get over it?" If he can, he can not climb the mountain, if he can not, he can do everything but build this kind of mountain. Goedel did the same with formal systems.
But I don't see the point of your "R" statement, maybe because I don't get the symbols which are different here. While R is the the set of Real Numbers which include all possible natural, fractions and irrational numbers as well as transcendental ones, A is the set of all numbers that are the solution of a polynom, is the set of algebraic numbers.
Like sqrt(2) is the solution of x¦-2=0, therefor an element of this set. Pi, which is element of R is not an element of A. As well as -x¦+1=0 is an element of A but no element of R, for the result is a complex number.
I don't see how the definition R={A|A [element of] A} can be that. Even if I assume anything beeing "|". But of cause I'm just a stupid Sebiestor girl...

I read "Consign to Oblivion, Thir...wait...what?"
Me and my music collection are pretty sure those names are from Epica and Nightwish albums, although I'm not sure where 'Gethsemane' and 'Beyond the Veil' come from 
My hangar:
Drake: Caldari Pride
Harbinger: Carus Bearus ( ratting )
Harbinger: William Tell ( sniper )
Harbinger: Blank Infinity ( spare sniper )
Crow: Nomad ( for travelling, warp speed rigs )
Impel: Carbon Fiber
Buzzard: Shadowrun
Blackbird: Bird Is The Word
Hulk: Barrel Roll
And many more...
