“Many years ago,” the Professor said, “I read a book by a Chilean who wrote about a man living in Mexico, and the man has gone completely insane. He begins hanging books on the clothesline outside, books of geometry, if I recall, to expose the concepts within those books to the elements, as it were. I have no clothesline, so I put the books in the fridge. If what they say is true, they shouldn’t mind the cold too much. They should prove themselves against it, in fact. If the concepts within those books are solid, if they are sound, they should not care in the least about the artificial cold of my icebox. I should have done this years ago,”
