Johnny Cash sang about a
"Ring of Fire".
Big Country sang about
"Fields of Fire".
Clearly, somebody
has to record a song about Groups of Fire. It would provide a sense of completion.
This is what I think about when I am dazed, and I am seeing rings and other algebraic structures show up in a talk. It also reminds me of comments I made as an undergrad about
Killing fields.
Update: Also, "ring of functions" naturally makes my mind blurt "ring of fire".
A killing field? Sounds like an ideal annihilator :)
