SAT 1520. How did you do?

John

It shows; 80 points shy of perfect, what an incapable dolt:-))

When people ask me how to approach demonstrations of truth in universal terms I often suggest they begin by learning how to spell.

Well sure. We all make them occasionally. That's why I don't comment unless its repeated. But you have no idea how disconcerting it can to be reading a comment critically when you come across a boo boo like that. At the very least it destroys the train of thought.And technical types are usually the worst offenders.

Now, now, boys and girls. We can all waste time demonstrating our "cooking" skills or we can all waste our time demonstrating the epistemological foundations of science and truth in universal terms. Personally I prefer to waste my time on the latter.

I only got 632+774, but I got two 800s on the "achievement" part.

Often the case with technical types. Quite possibly the reason they become technical types to begin with. Mathematikers have proven quite immune to considerations of truth in their own purview alas.

You and Larking both are goddamned idiots.

Whereas my mistake had nothing to do with either.

Started sentence with the word "And" as well.

Not saying that I haven't been guilty of the same thing, merely that it is not grammatically correct. (GC)

Or you can't do much of anything.

Whereas you prefer to waste your time on what exactly?
