Imagine Nation

Quote of the moment:
"Imagination is more important than knowledge." - Albert Einstein.

Seen on a poster in the Physics and Astronomy wing, which contains the largest of the 3 lecture theatres I rotate between. It's also the one with the most legroom and the (cushioned) bench seats instead of fold-up chairs. Ideal for napping when the lecturer is late, as I discovered this afternoon. I only woke up when he dropped the handouts for the row on the ledge next to my head. Lolski.

Said lecturer is bizzarely fond of giving us proofs for the P2 level calculus we're now on. We're engineering students, not maths students (or science students). We want to know what we can do with it, not why it works. Just for him, though, a proof of the above quote:

You can't acquire imagination.

I know... tragic, really.

I've given up. From now on, it's "type the letters in the picture" time. Sucks, but I really, REALLY don't need a private road constructed. Especially since it's probs in the USA.

Me neither.

The Warwick one is entertaining:

"What is the colour of an orange"

Plus it saves your answer for easy tabbing.
