Most embarrassing moment escorting?

Okay, that one is really funny! :7

I'm even more perplexed with

Scott, you're right, by golly. No one had described it as an equation, merely a theory. But the word equational was used. I'm sorry. I didn't realize that it was going to upset you, by even a little, to be likened to the Greeks. More specifically Athens. Socrates. Gosh, bad company to be in.

LOVED that proof

And your sarcasm really wasnt necessary since I was merely pointing out the topic was not discussing logic at all just that particular mathematical property.

 

Last I checked equational wasn't a word so the whole thing is pretty moot anyway }( As to Socrates, are you insinuating a desire for me to have some hemlock with breakfast tomorrow?

Believe the problem in the proof can be found in the line which reads (a+b) (a-b) = b (a -b) Since a-b is equal to 0 the statement is correct but you cannot then divide by zero which is the next step taken. One might say the proof starts to falter when you have A squared and subtract b squared which is zero but since I don't have a superscript easier to point out another place where zero causes a mathematical problem. Have not done math since college (Pythagoras was the TA) so I had to think this out. Thanks for the challenge.

Socrates did a lot of things during his life. He was a master teacher, for one thing, training Plato to, in some people's estimation, surpass him. He did a large number of things which I admire and hope that you grow to more and more closely resemble. I hope that I do, too. (And, if you haven't read it yet, you might want to look at Symposium. It's fairly short, comparatively, but rich, and all about love.) I certainly do not hope that you die soon, either the way he did or any other way. Speaking selfishly, that would deprive me of your electronic company, which I enjoy.

I am sorry that I got flip, since it bothered you. It bothered me that instead of saying proudly that though it did resemble philosophy, you were actually practicing math and thanks for crediting you with something you had not intended to do. I had not really meant to be hurtful, but I am not good at banter, and it was my fault. Please accept my apology and lets not let this matter escalate any further.

You are a very entertaining writer. And I believe that I saw your credit on a picture taken of one of the escorts reviewed today. (I noticed it on his web site, not on this site.) You are a well rounded young man.

As such, does it seem to you that, in our necessary rush to train enough scientists and engineers, we seem to not be teaching philosophy and the arts as well as we could?

Exactly - division by zero (a-b) is the devil.

 

There is a more convolved version of this that begins:

 

a + b = c

 

...and arrives at:

 

a = b

Oh Bilbo don't worry about it. Tone doesn't come across on here well. Haven't been mad at all ... ::hug::

does it mean im stupid if i cant follow the conversation ?

Hmmmmmm ....

 

..... just smile you're pretty

they are my weakest body part, but apparently not as weak as my brain

 

I though math and logic were based on the same priciple, but I guess my education is the classics is lackin

[Bilbo]

There's logic and there's logic. All sorts of different logic. You're not supposed to understand it all at first. The variety of different things you can learn should be designed to last you a lifetime after all, eh?

[valentino11]

very true, and very wise

Thanks!
