Subject: Dr. Math in February


Greeting, math docs, and welcome to March.  February was a short month, 
so let's see what we have:

Stats for February:
===========================
9719 -- incoming questions
2017 -- answered questions
20.8% -- percent answered
===========================

So we're doing well, with 400 more questions answered than last month.  
Let's keep up that trend.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Congratulations to Dr. Aileen for achieving tenure this month, and 
Welcome to Dr. TLJ, our new doc for February!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Now some news from our archivists:
===============+++++=========+=========+++++===============

We have a new Dr. Math FAQ on Pythagorean triples,  by
Dr. Rob, answering the questions: What are Pythagorean triples?
What do they have to do with Fermat's Last Theorem? See:

http://mathforum.org/dr.math/faq/faq.pythag.triples.html

And 90 new question-&-answer entries were added to the
Dr. Math archives during January/February of 2000.

===============+++++=========+=========+++++===============

Also newsworthy -- have you checked out the Dr. Math talk area
recently?  If you have, then you probably already know that Dave 
Peterson (aka Dr. Peterson) was on NPR talking about Dr. Math.  
To find out more, visit the discussion area.

And now, to wrap it all up, a few thank you notes to us all:
