This video has started bouncing around my math department and I thought I would share. It's a math love song by these http://www.math.northwestern.edu/~matt/kleinfour/ .

Perhaps this isn't the most productive use of this forum but I think everybody will get a kick out of this.

Enjoy,
Steven

Hahhahaha, Yes pretty funny. Who said Mathematics terminology couldn't be used for songs? :smile:
 
That just made my day. Thanks!
