    I know all about Olney's lesions, thank you. That's why I keep my doses low and infrequent. The beer I drink does more brain damage.

      2-2*i*sqrt(2) if a is in C, can't seem to get it right if a would be in R-C (indefinite? getting smth like a-6=0 && 2+a=0 at the same time :P), but it's been like 12 years since I last did this so high chance it's wrong But ouch pen&paper's hard after years of: Win, R, calc :)) But Ok, I was wrong, it's a system of 2 1st degree equations with 2 unknowns :P

      This[^] is my working out. I got a = 6, which is the right answer. BTW, sorry about the shaky writing. I've had way too much caffeine tonight. :)

        How so?

        Word, write letters and sh*t yo. It takes 46 muscles to frown but only 4 to flip 'em the bird. Friendship is like peeing on yourself: everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings. The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do. Everyone needs believe in something. I believe I'll have another beer.

          What is your usual dose and what brand do you usually take?

            Meh, I was so sure it's wrong, I messed up on the sign on the complex part of z^4 calculation (-4*i*sqrt(2)) so instead of your ending (a-6) + (a-6)*i*sqrt(2) I got (a-6) + (a+2)*i*sqrt(2). Seems like I still kept my old crappy attention span bug :D

                      Was nice trying my hand considering it's Friday and I got absolutely nothing to do at work on top of the day. And of course, if you consider a being complex (as in of the form x+y*i) you get the same result (logical since you only have 1 solution) but I R brain dead :D

                            I slept through class, never did my homework, and got strait Fs most of the time. Then I signed up for OWE ( a working program ) which made it so I only needed 21 credits instead of 25. Pulled some strings, and I got some credit for helping out an autistic person for a semester. Finally I rode off on my bike with a diploma.

                                  My all time favourite is Beylin DM, only DXM, no sugar, no alcohol, nothing else. My normal dose is 300mg, but I used to occasionally do 600mg, but then I was doing 300mg every second day, or every day.

                                    Its extraordinary. I used to know that kind of stuff very well. Diferentiation, Integration, all kinds of complicated maths, and without fail, I have never used any of it since leaving education and have forgotten all of it. Extraordinary. What did I learn it for?
