Sly Runttel from Gershwin England writes Dear Hugh: What is the Pythagorean Theorum?……And……..Whom was Pythagorus? ..and..What was his last name?…and can anybody be trusted with creating theorums when they have a name like that?

From Hugh.

Now look Sly……………Nobody gets away with asking that many questions in one post……..Except for the fact that I am feeling generous today…..

.

Puthagorus was a plumber. He was involved in many joint ventures. And his work was very draining. ……….One day on a lunch break he came up with his theorum…….

Nobody dared to question it cause he was a big guy with a pipe wrench. .

Regarding his last name…..When you have a name like Pythagorous….You don’t need a last name. Nobody is gonna forget. And you’ll be the only one in the phone book.
