Until recently, everyone in my family learned on and preferred standard, so it came as a surprise to me that it isn't the norm. I still get surprised.
The percentage of cars with stick seems to still be dropping.
from a quick google:
By 2012, just 6 percent of all vehicles sold in the North American market will have manual transmissions, according to a forecast by Germany’s ZF Industries, the world’s largest independent transmission maker.
Like learn to shoot and surf at the same time?
SUMMER OLYMPICS BIATHALON!!

That could be the summer olympics version of the biathlon.
That's one of the funniest x-posts I've seen in a long time.
I was about to call Jesse a freak, but look! Company!
How's yer surfing?
Nonexistent. But, see, I don't have ANY of the skills you have, so it's funny that I (once) had the skills you lack. See, funny?
That may be the first Biathalon cross post in the history of the Internet.
Hee!
I have always loved the idea of the biathalon. It's so practical and non-sporty.
In case there's anyone around who knows this, I have a trigonometry question:
I know cos^2 x + sin^2 x = 1, and therefore cos^2 x = 1 - sin^2 x but in one of the examples in my book they seem to have gone from (cos^2 x + 1) to sin^2 x in one step, and I'm confused. Shouldn't (cos^2 x + 1) = -sin^2 x? Or am I missing something?

Only this year, only this year. What else can you do? I'm still compiling the 2006 list.
