God does not care about our mathematical difficulties. He integrates empirically. --Albert Einstein

C

Where art thou Muse that thou forget'st so long,
To speak of that which gives thee all thy might?
Spend'st thou thy fury on some worthless song,
Darkening thy power to lend base subjects light?
Return forgetful Muse, and straight redeem,
In gentle numbers time so idly spent;
Sing to the ear that doth thy lays esteem
And gives thy pen both skill and argument.
Rise, resty Muse, my love's sweet face survey,
If Time have any wrinkle graven there;
If any, be a satire to decay,
And make time's spoils despised every where.
  Give my love fame faster than Time wastes life,
  So thou prevent'st his scythe and crooked knife.
 	--William Shakespeare

It is our continuing goal to foster the world's greatest converstation.

It may affront the military-minded person to suggest a reqime that does not maintain any military secrets. -- Albert Einstein

The whole of science is nothing more than a refinement of everyday thinking. --Albert Einstein
