    I was wondering if I it would be okay with MO if I asked a soft big-list question on "Mathematical Embarrassments". I would like to see more problems which the community assumes are 'diseases' in various fields. The content of the question will generally follow the ideas spelt out in Lipton's delightful blogpost here: http://rjlipton.wordpress.com/2009/12/26/mathematical-embarrassments/ and more others.

    Permission granted or refused? Thanks.
