Taking a break from writing my paper (I gave myself a midnight deadline  
tonight, so that I'd _stop_ at some point.)  Just wanted to relate a  
couple of things I heard. 
 
* Upstairs in the math lounge, there's two people studying organic  
chemistry.  This girl bitched about profs who took over the table she was  
studying at, but as she noted, it =is= their lounge.  How diplomatic. 
  Anyway, she and this other chem person who shouldn't be there (it's  
=not= a public lounge, guys) were entertaining each other with interesting  
stories from DC (I guess they both were congressional pages or something  
at one point), one about old Gopher from the Love Boat.  But anyway, the  
woman said something about a couple of medical students who got expelled  
for throwing around the penis from some cadaver.  She said, "If I gave my  
body to science, and two kids were playing around with it, I'd think it  
was kind of funny."  Just another person in the world that I'm glad not to  
know. 
 
* The only two things you need to know here at Courant is integration by  
parts and the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality.  Remember that, kids.
