Request for Clarification  Hello Arthur Rubin congratulations on your recent promotion to admin here at Wikipedia Your friend the Hillman agent seems to be MIA so Ill be waiting until hesheit gets back to renew my discussions with himherit But as it happens I just noticed that you responded to me in the CTMU AfD as follows   The only kind of theory capable of resolving an intractable paradox of physical science is a theory formulated on a level above that of the paradox itself thus using the theory one can define a function which resolves the paradox by mapping its otherwise conflicting elements consistently into observables That was me now heres you WPBOLLOCKS Well perhaps not but no such intractable paradox is discussed here  Arthur Rubin  talk    Im very sorry that I wasnt able to respond to you when you made that comment  too much going on for me to notice it at the time Im afraid But now that it has come to my attention Im struck by its ambiguity Do you mean that science generates no intractable paradoxes in the conventional or computational sense If so Id like to know how youve managed to deduce this Do you mean that such paradoxes may in fact exist but that the resolutions are necessarily scientific as opposed to interpretative If so Id again like to know your reasoning Or do you simply mean that the CTMU  an unquestionably notable theory which was covered by largecirculation elements of the popular media but whose Wikipedia article you nevertheless helped to delete  doesnt have anything to do with such paradoxes   I ask of course because you are a relatively famous Wikipedian who participated in getting that article deleted and as an important mathematician must understand quite a bit indeed More importantly because you have taken it upon yourself to help arbit the mathsciencepseudomathsciencephilosophy distinction here at Wikipedia I think we all need to make sure that you thoroughly understand it and are not letting misconceptions contribute to possible conflicts of interest on the parts of other Wikipedians Thanks
