Calling me stupid doesn't change the "facts" so why bother. You might
as well call me male, young and Canadian for the lot of good it will do
your discussion...
As for 50% of the time... some questions
1. What is the work effort required WHEN it does succeed
2. Why does it fail?
3. Can you work around the failure?
4. Are my eyes blue?

But you don't.
Don't you see the [... this is starting to become a dumb question ...]
see the problem with your attitude? You called us all stupid, claimed
factoring was easy and turns out your algorithm is crap [I haven't run
it but coming from you I'm sure it doesn't work].
By your claims your "theory" was air-tight. Now you're saying it's
not. What credibility [if any you had before] do you have now?

Hi, I'm Tom. I wrote a TEXTBOOK on multiple precision arithmetic.
Check your facts next time.

"because of quadratic residues" is not a complete thought. You could
have said "because of jacobi congruences" for all it would matter.

No it's jibberish incomplete thoughts.

Sadly I'm in this thread for the sport of it. Not because I think it's
in any way productive.

I know you are. What am I?

No actually I've http://libtomcrypt.org been spending
http://math.libtomcrypt.org some time http://poly.libtomcrypt.org
working on projects used by the industry http://scea.com [for instance]

Why? I've got work todo of my own. Why don't you explain why I would
give a damn to actually read your "theory"? If you can't [or won't] do
that then suffer the indignity of the average zero-sum reply.

YOU ALREADY SAID THIS IN THIS VERY POST. Stop repeating yourself!!!

And you have proof of this?
