Nov 6, 2010 at 2:49 comment added Bill Johnson Oh, yes, Pietro; that is simpler.
Nov 4, 2010 at 21:37 comment added Pietro Majer Yes, that's very nice, I didn't notice before either. In fact, it's a neighborhood of zero because it's a barrel in a Banach space.
Nov 4, 2010 at 13:19 comment added Bill Johnson True, Andreas, but I learned something thinking about this standard problem not in a course environment: Notice that my solution shows that the absolutely closed convex hull of any Hamel basis for a Banach space contains a neighborhood of zero. Did you know this? I certainly did not.
Nov 4, 2010 at 9:01 comment added Pietro Majer I wonder if there is an example without using AC.
Nov 4, 2010 at 7:16 comment added Andreas Thom I voted to close, since this question does not seem to be a question on a research level. It is almost perfectly suited for Math Stack Exchange (I think), since the basic tools to find the required example (like a Hamel basis, the existence of unbonded linear functionals etc.) are sufficient. In some sense it is an exercise everybody should solve, but not get solved within one hour on MO. I am sure that a crowd of interested students would have been able to answer this question quickly.
