If you've spent more than an hour "learning" LaTeX and still haven't mastered it then you should probably give up on any intellectual pursuit right there

But I guess I would rather be an ultrahip rebel than a dull-witted physics undergraduate. Undergrad science is training monkeys.

Undergraduate? Son, I'm a graduate physicist whose thesis advisor was the most cited physicist of 2003...

And congratulations on ruining a thread with your pointless jabbering.

I guess hitting command space to type in Greek is too hard for you.

But what you do does look like someone pooped on a page. It's boring. Interesting people don't waste time with that boring crap. That's why it's left for the dullards.

But if you want to feed your inferiority complex by trolling, please go ahead.

Most pathetic post of the thread award goes to that one right there ^

And can you please hurry up on mailing that DOC and font, I have work to do tomorrow morning.

Oh, plus when I was an undergraduate I had no idea how to use Linux , program in any language whatsoever or typeset in LaTeX

And I can count on one finger the number of lab classes I took.

I'm a theorist, little one...

Can we have a link to that famous Mac thread again please...

[Asher]

I'd love to see it again too.

This thread has turned completely gay and only Asher has an excuse...

But I guess it's more interesting to rehash the same wrong old theories of the world from 2500 years ago than it is to try for the right answer...

Hush. I'm enjoying twisting Aggie's pigtails...

[Asher]

Here's the thread MOBIUS:

Some choice quotes from Aggie.

Asher is now on perma-ignore.

And from Drake:

It does leave a bad taste in you mouth, doesn't it? Asher sets out on some vindictive little vendetta against the Mac people and somehow manages to get his way. Makes me lose faith in humanity.

Oh, those were the days...

[KrazyHorse]

I'm going to sleep.

Mods, please top this thread. A number of important issues have been raised here. It's my sincere hope that we can continue to discuss these in the sensible, mature fashion we've managed so far. It seems important that everybody in the Apolyton community (of which I am a pillar, might I add) should get the opportunity to contribute in as meaningful a way as I have tonight.

kthxbye

Yeah, you're not as big a douchebag as you used to be...

Uhh . . . . actually , the whole scientific world , along with most tech-savvy authors , and almost all professional typesetters , use LaTeX . Considering the program's intended market , yes , the whole world does use it . So that statement , though made in jest , is actually correct .
