[FRIAM] square land math question

[Frank Wimberly]

A lot of it has to do with using a cell phone keyboard and not wanting to
get too technical here.  But maybe Jon is right about "the List can take
it."

I should have said that aleph(n) is the cardinality of the power set of a
set with cardinality aleph(n-1).  That's slightly different from what I
said before.
