I think I'm addicted to Apolyton

[Az]

DAMN, that was a tough one. :/

Some people, Fez being one of them, take those threads far too seriously, though. Personally, I don't care enough about these people to get angry at them.

Oh come on. I argue in those threads all the time (until I get bored), but I don't dislike any of the people on here. I'd be an idiot if I based my view of people on their internet postings. I don't even hate the fascists. I think they're profoundly mistaken, but that doesn't mean I have no respect for them or think that they are Satan's representatives on this earth.

I even like Fez, despite the fact that he threatened to throw me out of a helicopter.

I feel the same way(although I'm not so sure about the Fez thing ) I am definately addicted. The attraction here is that there are so many different points of view and people can get passionate about them. Hard to find anywhere these days.

So, who's good at Diff Eq. here? But not too good, I don't want to get too upset.

Fez? You saw his photos, yes? It looks like a chicken can peck him to death.

I have no idea what that is. A chem thing ?

[Az]

No, Spiffor. It's a Math thing.

Ok, Jon, here's one for you, One that I didn't solve.

We have an equation in the La-place (sp?) form:

d2u/d2x+d2u/d2y=0

find u(x,y) or u(r,teta)
outside the circle x^2+y^2=4.

with u(x,y) on the circle's edge u(x,y)=y

u(r-->infitnity)=0

write u as a function of (x,y) or as a function of (r,teta).

d2u/d2x+d2u/d2y=0

find u(x,y) or u(r,teta)

with u(x,y) on the circle's edge u(x,y)=y

u(r-->infitnity)=0

write u as a function of (x,y) or as a function of (r,teta).

From your exam, yeah? Anyway, what is that La-place (sp?) form - must know it under a different name.

[Az]

A Second degree partial differential equation describing a static field.

the equation is always the same:

d^2u/dx^2+d^2y/dy^2=0

Ah, thanks. Quick answers, BTW .

Heck, you sound like a pro... also given that you could understand that stuff I posted in impersonation thread.

Should have associated that with him myself.

I cant stop.... damn your wit poly posters! damn it to hell!!!!

You people make it sound like a bad thing. It isn't. Here, we can talk to people who share our interests, as opposed to merely sharing our geograpy or workspace. If you find your refreshing for something new here, it's merely because you've learned that conversing with the people around you, who you probably wouldn't talk to at all if it weren't for being forced into close quarters for eight hour a day, simply can't compete.
