New issue 2195 by smi...@gmail.com: review the is_bounded issue
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=2195

There are some issues with is_finite and is_bounded that were discussed in [ http://groups.google.com/group/sympy/browse_thread/thread/e00b617e48744b0/ea5a2543bcbc9508?lnk=gst&q=log(3)#ea5a2543bcbc9508 ] I also noted some code that should be reviewed in the assumptions.py file at line 128:


        # XXX do we need this ?
        'finite     ->  bounded',       # XXX do we need this?
        'finite     ->  !zero',         # XXX wrong?
        'infinitesimal ->  !finite',    # XXX is this ok?

It seems like inifinite, the opposite of finite, would suggest 0 should be finite. Also, an infinitesimal is something that is indistiguishable from 0 and thuse should also be finite.

I'm just putting this here so this issue doesn't get forgotten...though the XXX in the program is doing that, too.
