Millennium Prize Problem Solved

Poincaré Conjecture has been solved and the winner, Grigori Perelman, won't accept the 1 million dollar prize that comes with solving it. This is the first Millennium Problem ever solved...what an amazing feet.

That is impressive. And reading about those 7 problems on the Wiki page made me feel really dumb.

I have many things in common with firstdown including a long battle with dislexia.

Re: Millennium Prize Problem Solved

As long as we're (I'm) talking spelling, from saden's link

BBC News - Russian maths genius Perelman urged to take $1m prize

Maths? Really? Isn't it just Math?

LOL, ya know what I just thought of- remember that thread like two years ago where we were posting funny pics (I don't think it was the happy fun thread, but I may be wrong), and someone posted that 80's pic of that chubby nerdy dude holding the computer diskette looking all proud? Man that made me laugh so hard.

A shiny nickel to anyone who can dig up that thread/pic.

Anyway, didn't mean to hijack, I just think that's one of the funniest pictures ever posted on this site.
