Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Does the hivemind have any opinion as to why Bessel function of the zero order with the boundary conditions of zero and infinity should be one?

Oh dear, I'm having flashbacks.

Not terribly informative or helpful ones, mind you. Mostly the part about remembering the classroom and how it is really hard to surreptitiously fight falling asleep when there are a grand total of 3 other students in the class.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Does the hivemind have any opinion as to why Bessel function of the zero order with the boundary conditions of zero and infinity should be one? How is the diverging being dealt with? Should it be decorated with glitter? If it had hair, which color should it use? Sigh.

Is the caveolin-mediated transport of potassium channels to lipid rafts dependent on any lipid interactions? Does the sphingolipid content of caveolae affect channel function? How do ATP-sensitive potassium channels differ in their response to phosphotidylinositols (and their derivatives) from inward rectifiers? Do statin drugs really watch Oprah?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think the whole problem is that Bessel turned her back on her true love because he was too common, and now she realizes her mistake, but it's too late, as her true love joined the foreign legion out of his dispair and was killed by pirates. But what Bessel does not know is that her true love is still alive!

Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Yuck.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Sorry Nilly. I'm horrible at differential equations.

Today's my first day of class. Last semester, I had all my classes on Tuesday and Thursday, with teaching on Wednesday, and Monday and Friday totally free. This semester, my classes are spread out over the whole week (well, maybe not Monday, depending on which class I end up taking for my third class.) I'm not sure which schedule I like better.

sara, I totally don't mind my students falling alseep. As long as they don't snore out loud.

Also, sorry for throwing out large math-y words on the screen. Still frustrated and feeling dumb, but at least you guys made me smile about it. So thanks, as well.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Okay. System is back up. The switch the servers were on apparently locked up. Life is better.

Meanwhile, the hivemind is apparently very dadaist today. Which is all good because I needed the laugh.
