I've discovered a new special number Q+'

In years to come mathematicians will uncover incredible properties of this=
=20
new number such as:

(1) Q+' + Q+' =3D Q+' * Q+'

and

(2) Q+' - Q+' =3D Q+' / Q+'

then they will forget (1) and (2) and be completely awestruck when they=20
accidently discover that:

(3) Q+' * Q+' =3D Q+' + Q+'

and

(4) Q+' / Q+' =3D Q+' - Q+'

then many years later still they will discover that I discovered Q+'
and I will be hailed a genius <sounds of maniacal laughter>

Look the point is: we have invented maths through observation of the=20
physical world, then when we see that what we have invented corresponds to=
=20
the physical world we call that proof that maths is real. Maths is a magic=
=20
trick performed with a specially crafted deck of cards.

Can anyone really show that 1+1 =3D 2 except as a concept on paper?
