Alas, it's been a few years since I took a math class, and now I'm as bound to my calculator as the next person.

It's funny you mentioned that. When pocket calculators came out in the Seventies, my brother and I wanted one in the worst way. Our father refused. He was a pipeline contractor, and I remember vividly him doing complex pipe run calculations by hand on a yellow legal pad. I guess that's how his generation did things. To this day I'm grateful to him for NOT letting me get that calculator, as I can do most everyday math on paper or in my head. I do use a calculator at times, as a timesaver rather than a crutch.

It's funny that in spite of how hard math was for me as a kid, I use it every day in my job and it's not a problem for me now.

Todays math--"Let's spend our way to prosperity" --That's like standing in a bucket & trying to lift yourself up.

That's good  ;D
