In fact' date=' one struggles in vain to achieve an existence theorem for non-crap. In no way am I implying this is relevant to your post immediately above; rather I was extending what I had said earlier.[/quote'] Yeah got that.

Cancer Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Re: The Last Word Then, a month plus before classes start up again. But no alarm clock, no panic daily to prep what's going to happen the next day, etc., in the interim. Mind you, I'll be working on preparing the class I haven't taught before, but that's a remote panic, not an immediate panic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
