Ah, I love escaping from the East Coast summer -- on week 2 in Seattle; 
I've been liking the weather here more than in Vancouver.  Ah, 70s 
weather.  Perfection. 
 
So perhaps you may be wondering what the hell I'm doing in Seattle.  I 
would think that most of the people (aka Stubaby) reading these entries 
would know what I'm up to.  Anyway, I'm doing mathcamp (see 
www.mathcamp.org if you want to see the official poop.  I'm too pooped to 
provide that kind of info.) 
 
Anyway, I just want to mention some topics I've seen/done here at mathcamp 
to remind me about stuff... 
 
Jeremy Martin -- Generating functions, combinatorics, and making change. 
 
Various -- p-adic metric space, p-adic numbers -- =weird= topology.  Sets 
P0, P1, P2 -- use to prove things about tiling with triangles... 
 
Mira -- projective geometry, elliptic curves 
 
Sveto -- Egyptian fraction problems 
 
Noah -- light traveling in circles 
 
Spike -- Ethnomathematics, African fractals, story diagrams, world views 
 
Canoeing, restaurant, swing -- vampires?  mao.  blergh. 
 
projects -- poker & craps, neurons, algorithmic composition of music 
 
I love my baby. =sigh=  I am so damn tired. 
 
oh yeah, Jamba Juice
