Talk:David B. Norman

message: The statement about Norman being the Sedgwick Museum's director has been corrected because, apparently, his is not. Norman is the main curator of the vertebrate paleontology collections and Kenneth McNamara is the museum director (I checked the reference here). The former reference regarding him as the director ("Discussing Darwin on BBC Radio 4's In Our Time") is no longer working. Apparently, a correct URL is the following: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/history/inourtime/inourtime_darwin.shtml. Kintaro (talk) 17:28, 21 September 2017 (UTC)

In the first paragraph, there are statements that says that SPA claims a certain thing but it appears that there are no citations for these claims. I was wondering if anyone had any sources for these claims and could cite them?

But I have never heard of the Cascade neighborhood and neither has my friend here who is a native of Leshi. I've lived in the CD (now "Madison at the Summit") for 10 years.

Talk:Exocarpos cupressiformis

message: I suspect that the early botanists thought that the proximal swollen, succulent, red pedicel was a true fruit and that the true fruit, the distal nut, was actually its exposed seed; hence the name Exocarpus.
After studies revealed the true botanical nature of the combined structure (a fruit-like pedicel with a hard, true fruit nut) the generic name was slightly modified to Exocarpos.A full historical taxonomic and nomenclature study would clarify this assumption. Botanists are very specific and pedantic when taxonomy and nomenclature are studied, and so thorough notes are kept. Whipstick (talk) 05:35, 21 April 2013 (UTC)

message: "In infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces, it is of some interest to observe that every orthogonal complement is closed in the metric topology—a statement that is vacuously true in the finite-dimensional case."
Why is this vacuously true? For instance, in R4, isn't the orthogonal complement of the vector subspace generated by (1,0,0,0) and (0,1,0,0) the vector subspace generated by (0,0,1,0) and (0,0,0,1), which is closed in the metric topology? It's a little trivial since all vector subspaces are closed in the finite case, but it's not vacuously true, which would imply there are no orthogonal complements.--Syd Henderson 05:49, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
