Oct 1, 2016 at 21:18 comment added LSpice @ToddTrimble, facts about groups of exponent 2 should be trotted out only on even, never on odd, occasions.
Oct 25, 2010 at 18:31 comment added Greg Marks I think you ought to submit your solution to the Monthly. The more so in light of this interesting history you mention.
Oct 23, 2010 at 11:39 comment added Todd Trimble Cool! The business about $S^\infty$ I gave above was my own response to a problem Paul Halmos mentions in his autobiography: does there exist a nontrivial connected Hausdorff topological group of exponent 2? (This problem is one of fifteen on a take-home final he once gave.) Ever since I found this solution, I've enjoyed trotting it out on odd occasions, and I'm happy that MO provided me with an opportunity to do so again!
