TES9 Session 449 November 18, 1968 integers Roger zero math minus

(In fact, she said that for all she knows all of the data given this evening is gibberish. We have no math books in the apartment. Few people have seen Roger’s list, and none of these with one exception knew any math. The exception is my brother Bill, who looked at the questions briefly last week on a trip through Elmira, from Rochester, where he lives, to Sayre, Pennsylvania, where our mother lives.

[...] Carl studied math for two years in college; reading the first session, he said that the ideas presented by Jane in trance made sense to him; he cited some examples to us and worked out some figures, especially concerning quadrants, and drew some diagrams. This proved interesting to us and we understood it while Carl was speaking; later however because of our lack of background in math we found it difficult to recall what Carl had said.
