Quote of the week:
"Mackey's axiom system is somewhat unsatisfactory though, since it assumes that the partially ordered set is actually given as the orthocomplemented closed subspace lattice of a separable Hilbert space."
For those of you who don't know what that means, memorise it and slip it into a conversation sometime.
For those of you who do: shame, shame, shame!
For those of you who encounter this line at your next cocktail party, the safe response is something like, "Yeah, that set is so unorthocomplemented!"
Cheers!
