Yes, yes. I know. You might guess, so don’t ask.
But now I’m here, and all sorts of technical glitches are making this enterprise somehow … difficult. My brother is out buying truck tires at the tire store next to his office. And here I am, trying to get the blog and the laptop and the desktop and my (various — wherein lies perhaps a cause of some grief) emails to talk to each other. I think I would prefer truck tires, even though I have not truck and never will.
What else would I want to be doing? Oh, maybe working on how to teach quadratic inequalities.
But here’s the point: please bear with me if I send some administrative messages as I try to put the pieces together again.
