2.2, due on 1/12

1. The motivation for Theorem 2.6 was a little confusing.  I'm not sure if I totally grasped the point but I'm not too worried about it because I feel like I understand Theorem 2.6.  I also don't really like how they introduced new notation but I'm sure I will get used to it.

2.  I think it is interesting how we are now developing an algebra for congruence classes.  I am still not exactly sure why they are important but hopefully the importance will avail itself soon.  I thought it was pretty sleek how the proof of Theorem 2.6 fell out directly from Theorem 2.2.
