Math, Physics, and Trees
The mathematician plays a game in which he himself invents the rules while the physicist plays a game in which the rules are provided by Nature, but as time goes on it becomes increasingly evident that the rules which the mathematician finds interesting are the same as those which Nature has chosen.
-P.A.M. Dirac

those are pretty trees. (oblivious to anything else at the moment.) you should blog about me or something.
an email I just got:
Subject: 2 (wiggle, wiggle)
Okay, I have NEVER sent a quote to someone over email, because that's
just stupid. But Noah (a dormie) wants me to write math/physics
equations/quotes/pictures on him for Fetish ball, and I came across
this quote:
"How can it be that mathematics, a product of human thought
independent of experience, is so admirably adapted to the objects
of reality?" -- Albert Einstein
