Yet, cannot Kosmanson arrive at the best of both worlds,
a strong mathematical platonism and strong logicist positivism,
sharing that with each individual thinking being, angels or aliens,
schoolkids and docents, that he has, "A Theory",
that there is one, at all?  Do all the logical paradoxes
really fall away under the calm eye of the wider dialectician?

That there is one, at all?



Does it really reinvigorate the canon and tradition?
Is it so that measure theory is re-Vitali-ized?
Can function theory and topology in operator theory
arrive at a reintegrative synthesis of each arithmetic,
algebra, analysis, about geometry and number theory,
that it was right under our noses all along?
