So I'm sitting here doing my astrophysics homework - online since I have to use integrals.com to do the hard bits of the calculus for me (two maths A-Levels and I still don't know how to integrate xe^-x, sigh...)

Then I notice the site is run by Wolfram Research, so now I have images in my head of poor Angel sitting in his office looking with panic at his computer screen going "e? What the hell is e? Wesley!"

...I may have had too much coffee.

Great imagery. I know that he knows something about tech by "City of", but not higher-level stuff.

Wolfram is a weird outfit. They're the new way of science guys. But for what they do, there's nobody else. They're number one, slots 2-9 are blank, and there's something doing an open source thing at 10.T

I feel you, though. I took Computer Science and was doing math to fulfill that requirement until the summer before my last (fall) semester, when I should've been done by the end of sophomore year. Then I was a dumbass and took Graphics, which is all math.
