Oooops!! Instead of saying that Euclid showed about 2000 years later, I
should have said Euler.  Sorry about that.  However, if there's
anything to reincarnation, maybe I wasn't so far off.....

Also, I've been informed that F8 has been factored.  I would appreciate
it if anyone who knows the factorization or source of the published
results would please post same to the net.  Thanks.
