I have been reviewing a manuscript for a publisher, and it contains the
following observation, which the author attributes to Fraenkel
``[the axiom scheme of foundation] is to be discarded once it
turns out that it impedes significant mathematical research..''
Now i *could* chase up the author but something tells me that breaching
anonymity in that manner would not be cool. I have my own copy of Fraenkel
*Einleiting in die Mengenlehre* but i can't find it anywhere in there. Can
anyone cite a source..?
thanks
