yeah, and subjects now cross eachother. it's nice when that happens. :)
like when economics comes into d&t, then maths comes into economics, then maths comes into biology, then maths comes into d&t, then maths is so visible that it comes into my private, personal life. then we don't do much in english! :mad1:

Maths invades every part of your life, if you let it take over :)

And I started to solve line equations for a couple of chopsticks the other day when two of them lay perpendicular to each other with others scattered on top of them. :uhoh:

Pfft. As if let maths be your motivation :p
without maths in the syllabus, i'd be the most happy and motivated freak within a radius of 15x kilometres, with x being the number of minutes the trapped miners got on television multiplied by the word count result of the poem 'Lamia' by John Keats.

Wouldn't you need a x and y axis to do that though? :)
Exactly. Two of those chopsticks lay perpendicular to each other. Maths hurts your brain. :mad1:
