Dialogue VIII: Crab Canon

Who is the "giant fellow from Warszaw" in the Crab's play with words on p. 200?

And what is the correspondence to the CG/GC combination in the text of Figure 43? The Crab's wondering about which came first? Or?...

Chapter VIII: Typographical Number Theory

Doesn't the supposed translation of sentence 5, (right below the middle of p. 212) say "There are infinitely large prime numbers" rather than "There are infinitely many prime numbers"?
