I've been cited!

Holy crap!

I was looking around the net, and I found this:

http://innovexpo.itee.uq.edu.au/2003/projects/s3806317/thesis.pdf [Broken]

I was confused, as I didn't write it, and I certainly don't know the guy who did. So Ilooked at it, and my website is cited twice as a reference! And to think I'm currently struggling to get accepted into honours, hmm. Maybe after I'vee read this thesis carefully I'll use it as leverage to back me up.

i've kinda been cited once on http://reglos.de/lars/ffx.html . BB Tenneson is the name. unfortunately, the site he gives doesn't have the reference on it but the article is still there. too bad it wasn't my more complete article which i seem to have lost. it's not a real citation because it's not in an article or a thesis...

the article was posted on my math109 (precalculus) site at sfsu back in the day.
