Thanks for the link, it's indeed fascinating even if well beyond my math knowledge.

HP-41 users can also work with Octonions.

I just finished Lost In Math, a readable discourse on the state of theoretical physics and a nice counterbalance to articles like this. I'm hardly qualified to take sides, but I found the book interesting and thought provoking.
