What belongs here

[zdas04]

We've had a complaint that a discussion on travel should have been in Pats Pub instead of here. The complainer was probably right. As I see it:

Pat's Pub - Discussions that don't involve bar napkins and grease pencils
Tech Side - Discussions that do involve bar napkins and grease pencils. Basically if it don't have math it should probably be over there.

Anyone have a problem with that?

Anyone have a problem with that?

Nope. Not at all.

In fact I'm rather glad - I will be posting a problem later today which my sales guy has volunteered me for!!

Cheers

So this thread belongs in the Pub then?

Two grease pencils walked into a bar. One spotted a cute napkin and said, "Hey baby, come here often?" The napkin replied, "Sorry, I don't like grease pencils. The last one I was involved with marked me for life."

There.

It is the exception that proves the rule. There are people in the Pub that will never hear of this place. This discussion would not be appropriate there. Actually it probably belongs in yet a third place.

No, there's maths involved;

Yeah, what he said.

Any discussion of Chemistry and Physics that I've ever had eventually reached the point where someone was doing arithmetic.

[Skogsgurra]

Hmm..

So, a discussion involving percentages and volumes (both mathematical, in a way) would be OK?

(No problem)^2

Sheesh. Look at what I started / the trouble I've caused.




That would, if the limit approach is applied, equal to "a lot".

How 'bout questions from my (then "future") wife's university physics class... The textbook was something like "Physics for Poets" and I had the hardest time helping her with her homework: The rules were that physics was supposed to be taught and learned without "resorting" to math. I would look at the problem that she was struggling with and think to myself "this would be a two line problem if I could use math." Instead I had to figger out a way to splain it in english. Probably helped me as much as I helped her understanding of physics!

Is it ok to make fun of stupid posts here?

 

[ivymike]

oooh, that sounds cool. let's hear 'em!

I aint going to delete nothing (except maybe grammer like that). Red Flags go to Dave and we don't know yet if he'll be deleting things or not.
