7. A piece on bad logic of even/odd, titled "One and only"

One is the most even of numbers. Nearly
all odd numbers are incomplete, awaiting
the addition or subtraction of another odd
number to come into their own, themselves at
last! stable, entire. The sole exception is one
which is more complete, more contained
even than the so-called even numbers, which,
lacking a notion of the whole, the solely
singular for the singleness, are destined to
fragment and decay. One, the most even and
inseparable of numbers, the definite article,
will outlast them all. Surely it must be so.
