I should stop trying, as I apparently gave the finger to like 5 people while trying.

@fresh_42 That place has a lot of people. I think I had never seen so many people in one place.

I must say, I can't think of a circumstance where such redundancy is necessary. While PIN number and ATM machine seem to be common usages, I think they're incorrect and my inner pedant leaps to the fore every time I see them. I was just duplicating your comment on redundancy for - apparently ineffective - comic effect.
Sorry again, man, I have been too square recently :1,4,9,16,.. it's all I am. But I agree that the repeated need to deal with unnecessary redundancy is not needed. And I am pretty sure I don't walk alone on that one, nor do I march by myself, nor displace myself solo, in my search to avoid having others with me as I ambulate.

Maybe a rephrasing: Dear Sir or Madam ...or whatever the hell it is you are.

Red Bull?? Why do you restrict yourself to just two of the main food groups?
 
Coffee. Black as the sky on a moonless night and sweet as its silence. The age of Apis is past, the night has fallen.

Recently I've heard on a TV show (Numbers): "Mathematicians are people who transform coffee into theorems."

I thought that was from Paul Erdos.

Apis?

Alfréd Rényi, who was addicted to coffee, is the source of the quote: "A mathematician is a device for turning coffee into theorems", which is generally ascribed to Pál Erdős. It has been suggested that this sentence was originally formulated in German, where it can be interpreted as a wordplay on the double meaning of the word Satz (theorem or coffee residue), but it is more likely that the original formulation was in Hungarian.

You know which member from the forum I miss? @drizzle

I've been thinking and it sucks to become attached to people. In an old forum which no longer exists I made friends and I missed them a lot when it vanished. That won't happen to PF, but I may soon not be able to come here. And when that happens I'm sure I will miss a lot of you. :H

In order to avoid that, I think I must not become attached. That's what my logic tells me. :bear:

The last time I spoke to drizzle she was going home to her sister's wedding, haven't heard from her since. Why wouldn't you be able to come here?
 
Yeah, their battles were epic. :smile:

Yes, they were. The old days were awesome. We had some really funny people, I don't know why they left and things got so boring. Well, I know why some left, like tribdog. But Artman was such a hoot. Before him we had Njorl, but I know why he left. :frown: Then some just grew up like yomamma, he even changed his name. And then their was Franz and smurf. <sigh>

If I could predict what will happen that would be awesome. It's still just a may, I may still be able to come here. There is more may than may not. :smile: Oops, I'm short on time. I'll come back today later.
