Do you remember the Math For Morons Like Us website (calculus section)?

I can't possibly remember something that I never saw! (Having said that, I sure hope that I'm not in there somewhere, as I have posted at many [forgotten] sites over the years. :))

I have noticed several "regulars" here (past and present) posting at a number of other forums. Anybody seen Fast Eddie, lately?
 
I remember - Denis Borris - a poet - where did he go......
 
No, not being a moron, I never had reason to go to that website!

(Am I the only person who feels offended by the whole "*** for Dummies" series? I remember seeing one titled "Getting into College for Dummies". My thought was "Aha, that explains a lot!")

I proofread Algebra for Dummies (2004?); together, there were more typographical errors, misstatements, and math errors than there were pages in the book.

I was not offended, just disgusted.

That title must reference the editor, in some way.

Mark said Denis was looking for lost n's so my mind snapped.

A common lament, after I say something.


PS: Nobody knows where the math field is located, but I know that this board is not located therein. So, wander away... :wink:

OMGosh -- Google shows that I jumped to a false conclusion via an absence of fact-checking.

Lookagain made a good joke.

I retract my prior support for Denis, and I am headed to the corner to endure more raw-neck jokes. :oops:

Despite having played bridge for a number of years, I am fundamentally a kind person so I shall grant probation on the condition that I see no more moron jokes for the duration of your original sentence.

Means - you get to act like a "dummy" several times, over one night ??!! (Oh no... he is going to send me to the corner - now that Denis is not there...)
