Other projects included [...] letters sent to the University of Chicago criticizing their use of 4.10 after 4.9 in chapter headings (these appeared to be form-letterish, as if the teacher prompted them what to write)

Now this part is silly. Clearly 4.10 represents the 10th section in Chapter 4, and as such isn't really any kind of decimal representation. Maybe "4-10" would look better, but who wants a Chapter -6?
EDIT: Also, what's with the "If math were a color..." thing? I've never understood that kind of question making a bit of sense to anybody but a synesthetic. Heh, I'd actually be interested to hear what color math would be from some color synesthetics, though I don't know if words evoke colors like numbers and sounds might. I've heard that some get tastes from different words. Now I'm just rambling.
