So I don't really have a backspace here, so I've got to be careful. 
 
I just wanted to put in a little hi to my friends at fibs who just found 
me.  I've been here for over a year!  What took y'all so long? 
 
I forgot to put up the stuff that Conway was talking about -- Doomsdays, 
rivers & lakes, mental arithmetic, games with surreal numbers (sum of 
games). 
 
Richard Guy talked this morning about Catalan numbers, and all the places 
they crop up.  And I went to his lecture today - the man moves too fast!!! 
Argh!!! 
 
And quantum mechanics that is diffusion just doesn't work.  Just so you 
know.
