    I just have a thing about numbers that makes a part of my brain scramble and then reach out, rearranging my eyeballs. On the bad days, I have to repeat the phone number over and over (to myself, yesssss LOL) as I cross the room least, with one tiny interruption, I forget it. And I'm talking about my own home number here folks. :eek: LOL I think of it as numbers dyslexic or something along those lines?

    These are concepts that the Greek mathematicians thought about and settled a few thousand years ago, so don't congratulate yourselves too much for your deep original thinking.

    First of all, I never said I was the original person to think of these questions.

    Second, grow a sense of humor.
