Don't you know I took non-calculus-based physics in high school? Ever tried doing physics as though the formulae were magically pulled out of thin air, and invoked to conjure the spirit of Isaac Newton to give us the answer?

(Yet people still wonder what's wrong with our educational system?)

Will you believe my high-school physics teacher didn't know calculus either, and gave us the formulas, rather than teach us to derive them?

Would you be astonished if I told that the only calculi I know are in the gallbladder, kidneys, urinary bladder, pankreas, teeth and salivary glands? Why is everyone so keen about learning this stuff?

You mean calculus has another meaning that a type of math?

Well, what use could you have for stones in mathematics?

Who wants to see The Stones sing about Calculus now?

*Just me?*

Do you think we could get them to?

If you start them up, do you think they would ever stop?

Sort of like Newton's law?

Isaac or Fig?

{hint: just try eating too many figs ...}

Did I tell you there are fecal calculi as well?

by **troubleagain** » Fri Oct 17, 2008 11:32 pm

Ewwwww?

And bronchial calculi? Made of the compacted purulent secretions of pthisic, rotting lungs?

You trying to gross me out?

Can't I contribute something to the thread?

by **pmcolt** » Sun Oct 19, 2008 10:23 pm

Do you think anything can really help this thread?

Could the llamas help?

by **KLA2** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 12:15 am

Would the llamas help?

by **pmcolt** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 1:33 am

Should the llamas help?

by **Lance** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 4:09 am

How many threads could a helping llama help if a helping llama could help threads?

by **Arneb** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 1:34 pm

Do we really want to overstretch the llama's patience?

by **troubleagain** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 2:25 pm

Don't llamas spit when they're angry? And kick? And bite?

by **Lance** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 5:27 pm

Don't you all know that the illumi-llama breed are all passive, kind and loving?

by **troubleagain** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 8:15 pm

How many generations from your normal, spitting/biting/kicking llama did it take to get to illumi-llamas?

by **Arneb** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 8:30 pm

Do you think we should tell the public?
