Welcome! Local time in Bellevue Washington is
11:30:52 and the date is 11/20/09. For those who need to target an ICBM, that is at N=47.20° E=-122.11°. We are -8:00 in relation to GMT.
The various pages that comprise this site have been accessed 1131455 times since the counter was created in March 1998. I teach Mathematics at Bellevue College. I also was the "technical" web master (as distinct from content creator) at BC from the beginning of Web service at BC in June 1995 till December 1996. From that time till Summer 2002 I performed that function for Science Division. Currently I have an active interest in Physics, Rock and Ice Climbing, Mathematics. |
| Geometry is a dangerous thing; there are many accounts of its addictive power. A description of Archimedes from Plutarch paints a dire picture of a man so enthralled by the subject that "he neglected to eat and drink and took no care of his person; that he was often carried by force to the baths, and when there he would trace geometrical figures in the ashes of the fire." | |
| The Works of Archimedes | by Archimedes and Sir Thomas Heath |
The following items strike me as interesting, funny or valuable in some way. I will add or change content from time to time. Enjoy!
