Do you know if there's an archived copy of the essay? Google is being worse than useless. (It starts at 49:30)

And also makes me wonder if this is the most readily available copy of it. Kumquat screaming the work of this apparently brilliant mathematician interspersed with people yelling fuck the moon.

Oh and for Usenet archive the earliest posts even mentioning him (for the blow up the moon thing) are from 1991. This essay was earlier.

Here you go. I think it was something that he had mentioned in the past but only properly crystallized later, because I can see references to it from earlier, but this is the oldest extended writing on the topic I can find.

As an almost-mathematician, I can say frankly that being a great mathematician and being bugfuck insane are not contradictory, and might even be correlated.

Yeah. He seems like a gem though I wouldn't ever want to be around him. He also thought we should pull Venus far enough away from the sun so it would develop the same climate as the Earth. Among a lot of other things.

I just finished House of Leaves, and my first thought was “I need to re-listen to all the F-Plus episodes that mention it so I can get the references.”

Does anyone know exactly which ones those are?

I know this doesn't even scratch the surface, but I think there was one in the wrestling wiki episode.

Which episode was it with the guy who was trying to pass a drug test after smoking an inhuman amount of weed and Lemon says that if he pricks his fingers, a Cottonmouth Kings song comes out?

I thought I was going to hit this sooner because this bit seems like it would be from a question and answer site but it is from episode 325 on Bulletproof coffee. The post is about 70 minutes into the episode.

Which episode had the person ranting about the laser sniper ape and giant flesh eating centipedes? It's an older one I know but I cannot figure it out for the life of me. I don't have any other context for the line because it just came out of left field in the episode

Edit I know the username was centipedesruinedmylife that they were reading

Here once more to pick the collective brain. It's half F Plus related, because it got mentioned in an episode and I'm not sure where else to ask it.

I'm pretty sure it was Nutshell that brought it up but someone brought up a reference to the guy that would just absurdly slow down music like 33x and listen to it repeatedly, and I can't for the life of me remember who that was a reference to. It's been stuck in my head for a few days trying to figure out where that reference came from, but I've hit a wall. I'm pretty sure they brought the reference to it up in 105 during the musician help guy bit, but it's literally just a split second mention of it, and I can't seem to find anything else on that subject anymore.

That was Ulillillia. He would record the songs from Bubsy the Bobcat in Claws Encounters of the Furred Kind on tape at a zillion different slowed-down speeds and listen to each one for months at a time.

There’s a Jack Chick reading of his site that covers this and more in Episode 100.
