May I suggest AvantGo (www.avantgo.com) with the PocketLJ channel? You just write it down on your PDA and hit "update" and it sends your new post to the server as soon as you sync it. That's what I use.

Oh Patrick. You are so funny. I would like to see a shirt with this slogan. Perhaps a weird math teacher or two would give you some extra credit...

Re: Congruent Rights! pkozub May 8 2005, 02:12:14 UTC

Well, you're weird...and I am in need of some extra credit...

Yes. I am weird. Does that mean you will be wearing a Congruent Rights for All Triangles shirt? Are you going to fight for obtuse, scalene, acute, and isoscels triangles everywhere? Do the equilaterals have a stake in this as well (after all, they are but two congruent 30-60-90 triangles with a common long leg)? Do you have a problem with the Hypotenuse Leg Theorem, the Pythagorean Theorem, and ratios such as sine, cosine, and tangent? I will eagerly await your platform on these issues. ~ Geek Philosopher

I feel that regardless of their angles 'n' such they should all have an equal representation in text books and standardized testing everywhere. The SINE, COSINE, and TANGENT stuff, like the damned block system at South, is just another way for them to be segregated...

Extra Credit anonymous September 6 2005, 01:57:57 UTC

Ah, Patrick, if only I taught geometry...extra credit would be flowing in your direction. You'll just have to create a similar, interesting, imaginative essay on algebra or stats!!

Re: Extra Credit pkozub September 6 2005, 02:30:50 UTC

Ah, yes. Unfortunately, whoever you are, you are a year late :-).
