During your lengthy absence from math-teach, did you forget that we are immune to responses like this? Well, now that you are reminded, let me also say that it's one of those immunities that are hard fought and hard won against a virus that changes its spots on each presentation. It is the type of immunity that, once you attain it, you have it the rest of your life.
