"One reason why mathematics enjoys special esteem, above all other sciences, is that its laws are absolutely certain and indisputable, while those of other sciences are to some extent debatable and in constant danger of being overthrown by newly discovered facts."
Albert Einstein

"What science can there be more noble, more excellent, more useful for men, more admirably high and demonstrative than mathematics."
Benjamin Franklin

"Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty – a beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture, without appeal to any part of our weaker nature, without the gorgeous trappings of paintings or music, yet sublimely pure and capable of a stern perfection such as only the greatest art can show."
Bertrand Russell

A crip course
A gut
A blow off


...that was one I couldn't answer truthfully, though. O_o We call an easy class...an easy class; or, my personal favorite...a joke, lol.

XD Erica apparently didn't read through the thread. =o

Dixie would be a southern thing... I think of Louisiana when I think of Dixie.

Oh! I think I figured out why I got Dixie on mine... I think it could be because I do say y'all a lot. o_o;

I <3 Andy's southern accent. ^^ I really wish I knew what a CT accent is... my friend said part of it is that we don't pronounce the "h" in words like whip. o_o;

No, I didn't. ;D And shut up, Jorge. XD

o_O How would you pronounce the h in "whip"...?

Blah, this would probably be more useful if I knew the difference between all of these different types of English. Honestly, I barely knew there was any variation amongst American English. I've normally just categorized it between American and British English. oO;
