I bet his ability to practice the religion of mathematics played some role in that. By the way, not only prestigious is a relative concept but also I am against this concept. Well, of course, this does not mean that others have different views. And my issue with my leftist friends is that they let these so-called prestigious departments to be filled with some ignoramuses whose personal libraries mainly consist of the text books they studied during their graduate programs, together with Readers Digest magazine, of course? And those ignoramuses infuence our daily lives, be it here in the US or in Turkey or in Argentina or where have you. It is time to revolt my friends, before it is too late. Sabri
