Well I never said he was for everybody. I probably like Anton because most his applications are for the sciences and his approach has been helpful in my projects connecting the caculii and physics.

I just Googled Anton and found someone suggesting him alongside Thomas, and I also like Thomas; so maybe there's a relationship between those who liked Thomas and now like Anton.
