I have accidentally come across your Blog, and would like to make the following comment. Your history about numbers is completely wrong. The digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 0 were invented and used by the Tamils first. Arab traders popularized it in Europe. In fact, this is the history as studied by almost all foreign universities both Department of Mathematics and Department of History.
