Gee, all those pure mathematicians who were holding out
for number theory as one of the few branches of mathematics
without any practical application are going to be mighty
upset that some damn engineer from Bell Labs has gone and
found a practical application for it.

Oh, Benoit--have you anything new we can play with that
the engineers have't got their hands on?  Benoit?  Hello?
