Snippet of conversation at dinner last night, when nine of us were trying to calculate what we each owed, between food, orientation subsidy, tax and gratuity:

Me: Can't we make the mathematician do this?
Mathematician: No, I do pure maths. We don't work with numbers. Make the economist do it.
Economist: Oh, no. No. We just assign variables to things.


You needed a bookkeeper! Would've calculated correctly to the penny.

I'm glad elynittria and you got together. : ) It sounds like a very fun time.
