| Dec 9, 2011 at 18:34 | comment | added | Jared Weinstein | Q1 is the same question as mathoverflow.net/questions/3871/…, where the answerer noted that the residue fields of maximal ideals not arising from points are necessarily more exotic than $\mathbf{C}$ (or $\mathbf{R}$ in the context of the current post). | |

| Dec 9, 2011 at 15:44 | comment | added | Will Sawin | One might try to construct a multiplicatively closed set with certain bad properties. I don't think the set of functions with finitely many zeroes works, but it might be a start. I think one might have to classify the maximal ideals first. This might be impossible. | |
