4.1, due on 1/31

1.  I found the xa=ax for every a in R part hard to believe.  They don't give a proof of it in the section and they don't give it in the appendix they refer to either, no good.

2.  I thought it was interesting that now we're going to expand to polynomials in rings/fields.  I found the division algorithm applied to fields interesting.  The proofs (that were given) were understandable.
