<p>I am exploring a different methodology in the exploration of a certain line of questions. I do not wish to fall into the language-game that is philosophy, and have begun developing thought-experiments that are based purely on mathematics, and the mental processes which allow us to perform mathematics. May I post an example thought-experiment, so that we can evaluate what responses participants come up with?</p>

I clearly got overly excited when I encountered this site, and wanted to engage the community. I understand now it is about fact exchange, and expert system, not an experimental space. I shall bring up the question in meta as a last attempt. Thanks.http://mathoverflow.net/questions/81083/is-this-a-place-to-test-thought-experiments-of-a-mathematical-natureComment by happyseaurchinhappyseaurchin2011-11-16T16:05:59Z2011-11-16T16:05:59Zperhaps it may be useful if someone with enough reputation creates a "thought-experiment" tag...?
