That's fine.  Thank you, Dr. Neil J. A. Sloane, for your edit to the
revision as below.

For the record, I admit mistakes.  Every teacher makes them; I give my
students extra credit for correcting me in the classroom. Marc LeBrun
is right, too. I have, in fact, sold articles to encyclopedias, such
as the Gale Encyclopedia of Computer Science.  And I have provided 19
entries or contributions to my Caltech co-alumnus Eric W. Weisstein,
for his MathWorld--A Wolfram Web Resource. And knew Wolfram since he
was a Physics professor at Caltech.  So no need to scold me, anyone.
Almost everyone slips at times. "Even Homer nods." .  Neil J. A.
Sloane and his wonderful Associate Editors have caught errors of mine
before, and doubtless others remain here and there among the 2541
sequences in OEIS to which I've contributed.  This is a collaborative
system, and every writer (Math or otherwise) appreciates good editing.
 Thank you to everyone who has helped in that capacity.

Best,

Prof. Jonathan Vos Post

	COMMENT 	
Every odd semiprime must be in one of three disjoint sets: the product
of two primes of the form 4n+1, the product of two primes of the form
4n+3, or the product of a prime of the form 4n+1 and a prime of the
form 4n+3.
