The cool think about <Ramanujan> is how British mathematicians heard about him and then just went crazy that someone they had never heard of before had come up with so many <novel results>. It is as if <God> had come down from the clouds and handed them those results. Without proof. But in that field of research, the statements are not easy to come up with, so much so that <G. H. Hardy> commented that:
> they must be true, because, if they were not true, no one would have the imagination to invent them
