I'm sorry; mathematics is so bourgeois.

I suppose there might be. Meantime I find the GB is fairly supportive.Metrodance said:There must be a support group you can join?

kbate said:Perhaps not, but I certainly have the option of going down in a spectacular manner.

Equinoxe said:You know what today is? Today is the anniversary of the ascension to the thrones of England and Ireland of William III and Mary II as the result of the so-called 'Glorious Revolution' (neither glorious, nor a revolution). Therefore, today is to be a day of mourning and there shall be no bloodshed on my account. Your insults towards all that is good and holy shall be given leave for the day.
kbate said:If you were to look closely at my Mule for about 7 hours, the mathematics of the piece would become clear to you.
This is also the anniversary of the desecration of the Tomb of King Tutankhamun, for this reason I shall take no further offense.
Equinoxe said:Pardon? I do believe you are several days ahead of yourself.

kbate said:funny, that is a public server. oh well, they say "on the 13th the tomb was opened" Other sites say they entered the burial chamber on the 17th. others say the 16th.
I cannot verify any of these dates, as different pages have each.
I therefore direct you to the works of Master Escher (of whom I am sure you are aware) who seems to suggest that such works virtually create themselves.Equinoxe said:No, they wouldn't, I'm not that well-versed in mathematics. One may construct an image mathematically (in fact, earlier today I was reading about optics and linear perspective), but one need not construct an image mathematically.

Even though you've called me bougeois, I thought you deserved a little appreciation on Valentine's Day. Not that appreciation is everything, mind you. For a start it isn't education...Equinoxe said:I'm sorry; mathematics is so bourgeois.

Media thief.kbate said:Before Equinoxe can do it:
According to one legend, Valentine actually sent the first 'valentine' greeting himself. While in prison, it is believed that Valentine fell in love with a young girl -- who may have been his jailor's daughter -- who visited him during his confinement. Before his death, it is alleged that he wrote her a letter, which he signed 'From your Valentine,' an expression that is still in use today. Although the truth behind the Valentine legends is murky, the stories certainly emphasize his appeal as a sympathetic, heroic, and, most importantly, romantic figure. It's no surprise that by the Middle Ages, Valentine was one of the most popular saints in England and France.
(Oh, yeah. I stole this from history channel)
