-Proof techniques #2: Proof by Oddity.
-	SAMPLE: To prove that horses have an infinite number of legs.
-[1] Horses have an even number of legs.
-[2] They have two legs in back and fore legs in front.
-[3] This makes a total of six legs,
-	which certainly is an odd number of legs for a horse.
-[4] But the only number that is both odd and even is infinity. 
-[5] Therefore, horses must have an infinite number of legs.
-
-Topics is be covered in future issues include proof by:
-	intimidation,
-	gesticulation (handwaving),
-	"try it; it works",
-	constipation (I was just sitting there and...),
-	blatant assertion,
-	changing all the 2's to n's,
-	mutual consent,
-	lack of a counterexample, and,
-	"it stands to reason".
