I was involved in this in the 8th & 9th grades. Also kinda learned to work a slide rule during those years. So...geekdom was not a question of "if", just "how". Whether or not one "likes" math is entirely a personal matter. Whether or not one aggressively ignores it to the point of creating some kind of deniability of it is a question of one's contribution to the collective rationality/sanity, such as and to what degree such a thing actually exists. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WSHvbGM6oE Quote

JSngry Posted December 15, 2017 Report Posted December 15, 2017 Thanks, all , much appreciated. Without even having to load 16 tons, what the man says about another day older and deeper in debt, hey. I feel that one. But an evening with our blessing of a granddaughter puts all of that (indeed, everything!) into perspective. Life is good. Quote
