I’m going to try an experiment with this blog. In an effort to develop better proof writing skills, I am going to try to write a proof per day on here. Sometimes, it will be something assigned to me as homework and sometimes, it will be something random that I want to prove. Either way, at this moment, I feel like I am a horrible proof writer. Spending a dedicated amount of time each day (probably each weekday) will help be improve. I should disclose that sometimes my proofs will be really bad (or not even right), so caveat emptor.

At first, I considered starting a separate blog just for the proofs but then I realized that I’d have to reinstall all of my themes and modules that I already configured for this wordpress install. It took me long enough to get this one right that I don’t want to go through the process again. Maybe I’m lazy or maybe WordPress is not very scalable for this kind of thing.  So, I created a wordpress category “POTD” (Proof Of The Day).  I then went through and hacked all of my custom db calls to the wordpress library to separate posts with category=1 (uncategorized) versus category=92 (potd). Hopefully, it won’t be confusing for my readers.
