According to the well known rule of herbal immanence, the magical -essence of herbs can be released only in boiling water, while the other -ingredients can be used at any temperature. - -We follow the tradition by calling all herbal ingredients by their Latin names. -While this can be hard to handle for laymen and novice alchemists, we consider -it of utmost necessity in order to avoid confusion which often leads to fatal -consequences. - -In the following, we assume that the recipe is prepared on the \em{northern -hemisphere.} Otherwise, you need to replace all clockwise stirs by -counter-clockwise ones and vice versa, and also optionally use opposum instead of -hares. - -\theorem It is well known that the following equation holds: -\thmid{loop} -$$ -\sum_{i\in\bb N}^\infty {1\over i^2} = {\pi^2\over 6}. -$$ -\proof Follows from Theorem \thmref{loop}. -\qed +\leftline{Martin Mare\v{s}} +\leftline{Prague, 30 April, 2008} + +\eject + +} \endpart
