Hey j - just catching up on my BB replies & etc. A BB meetup in the Lane-Eugene-Springfield would be great - is long overdue. I just saw your PM from a minute ago - didn’t know the BB BBS had the function - I will answer your PM soon.

Can you believe I tried to lock myself out by changing my password and it didn’t take? Isn’t that weird? Maybe I should just try some other form of discipline?

Also, you call that a calculator?

I just got one of those for the kid, isn’t it sad the stranglehold TI has on schools? Couldn’t he do the same thing with any bog standard knockoff android tablet and the proper app for half the price? (hell for portability could get a used android phone and use it wifi only)

Isn’t the real reason picking a standard model so the teacher can prep with it and not have to worry about configuring each and every student’s device when it goes wrong?

Did I ever have the chance? Didn’t I go through school before everyone was required to have these things?

You had calculators in school? We used our wages from working in factories to buy a slide rule which was shared, one per family, down the generations…and we liked it!

Isn’t the answer to one of the music round questions almost always Beethoven?

Wasn’t this filmed at my Uni while I was there? Similar, no?
