"words, words, words .. what is the matter ..?"

well, i was right not to predict 20 pages because,
for some reason, the preprint has now reached 25.

[sighs]

there's nothing wrong with 25, but i thought that this would be a short and easy paper .. well, "easy" by my own standards ..

that is: if i proved it,
then it can't be that hard. q:

admittedly, i added a table of contents, which is 3/4's of a page, and the references fill up another entire page.

it's still incomplete, so: back to work ..
