    To go to graduate school or not go to graduate school. That is the question.

      I'm mulling this over for myself, as well. :)

    How do you measure the temperature of a solid object?

      You could use thermodynamics and a simple styrofoam cup calorimeter and calculate it. It would have to be an object made of something you knew the specific heat for, though. An infrared thermometer is probably easier. :)

    Perhaps my descendants will one day reap a fortune from selling them? One can only hope there's some good that comes from hoarding books on writing instruction right?

      If books of any kind constitute an inheritance, my dd should be set for life! ;)

      Just took a short one myself this evening. :) I was procrastinating and trying to avoid marking the chem tests from my students, though. ;)

    Mr. Robert Chang just offered to split $8,700,000 with me 60/40 if only I would send him my bank account info...

      I dunno. I'd hold out for at least 75/25...

    You know a class must have a fabulous reputation if not just one, but three students arrive in the classroom at 7:30am to secure good seats for a 9am class. (No, not my class, but my DD was one of the students)

    Proud of DS who just spent two hours working on an AoPS Challenge problem with a star and three hints - without looking at the hints. He stuck with it and figured it out himself.
