We report on an experiment in interactive reasoning with FOL. The subject of the reasoning is elementary algebra. The main point of the paper is to show how the use of meta-theoretic knowledge results in improving the quality of the resulting proofs in that, in this environment, they are both easier to find and easier to understand.
