The slant was making me sea-sick. Now there are lots of artificial horizons.

'artifical horizons' indeed

LOL.
And I was positive Jonathan was a high level diplomat. :)

Diplomat! Moi? (bravely resisting the boycott of French words which forced Dr. Bob to disable Babelfish translation)
Dinah, you obviously haven't seen the Great Schism that arose from my recent attempt to be amusing, supportive and diplomatic on the Saints' Board :(
Tabitha is correct. QED.

Au contraire, Jonathan. I saw it.
I do remember now that you are a mathemetician. It is you who can match my husband in word games.
And I was busy dreaming up a career for you in the diplomatic corps. Ah well, I'm sure mathematics is a far more rewarding career, and diplomacy can remain an avocation.

How a mathematician sees the world--all structured ordered ?

> i was about to go try to play with numbers in a while...Wow — a poet who likes math! Yes, that would be fun :)
I was happy to see in your posts yesterday that you managed to get some sleep and are now feeling less frightened.
I'll be thinking of you today and praying that your pdoc can come up with a med combo for you which controls this fear without impairing your impressive creative imagination.

I wasted so much time and effort writing long replies which I never posted because they turned out too trivial and nit-picking.

Yes, I remember your husband very well: the best Latin poet in North America whose work I've read.

Dr Eamerz,
Dang! Those pesky post-eating elves got your last three posts on our secret thread before I could read them. Were they zapped because your research results were mad or bad or dangerous to know, or just because that thread's origroot was planted on the unstable side of last September's temporal event horizon, after which all posts evaporate into hyperspace? Cambridge cosmologist Prof. Sir Fred Hoyle explains temporal event horizons like this (which are similar to the spatial event horizons around black holes) in his book appropriately entitled "October the First Is Too Late". Those elves tried to get into my mailbox, too, but they couldn't crack my quantum encryption algorithm: the email notifications containing the subject lines of your messages are safe, although the messages themselves are lost.

All times are Chicago, six hours behind GMT. There must be a pattern, but I can't see it yet.Your Pythagorean idea sounds particularly intriguing: I'd guess that you must be thinking of Kesselbaum's seminar on Pythagorizing the Bermuda Triangle, when he proved that the origroots of the square on the hypotenuse are always a conjugate pair, remaining linked by quantum entanglement even if one origroot passes through a spatio-temporal wormhole (like the Bermuda triangle) and emerges in a different universe. I suspect that this is how thread redirection to a different board works. I've been running sophisticated conjugacy tests on the origroots of such threads before and after redirection. The results are still inconclusive, but too interesting to discuss with you further in this public forum.

I received an email from my cousin this morning. She has known me all her life and she always mis-spells my name exactly as you did; and she's a teacher. (Her two daughters, aged 11 and 9, always get it right, though!)
As for the double post, lots of us do that, or it may be something your web-browser does automatically when the server is slow; the reason you don't see many double posts is because Dr. Bob is very efficient at deleting them, often before you read them. If you look at this thread tomorrow or Thursday you'll probably see that he has deleted one of your two identical posts. Please don't feel bad about it if that happens; it's just part of the normal running of the site.
I read your message to Daizy about today's appointment. I'm glad your pdoc has changed your meds and not only increased the Risperdal as you thought he might. The IOP program sounds a good idea, too, and worth missing school for for just a couple of weeks. I'll be interested to hear how you get on with it.
Jonathan.

Hi,
Its funny, i had a friend whose last name was Donavan and lots people spelled it Donovan but i always spelled it right. Anyways, yes i am a litlte better adn i am taking twice the risperdal i was takeing and adding some depakote but am still paranoid.
im scared of the IOP program. but it will probably be good for me. Im bringing my sketchbook with me though and i may just draw the whole time if i am nervous. I knwe i was falling apart but i didnt realize that my doctors could tell. I thought the police were coming for me at the social workers, there was a knock at the door, but it was just my pdoc.
I told my teacher today that i would be out 3 days a week for the next 2 weeks. hesaid its ok. Just i have to keep up somehow.
Anyways, do you know anything about discrete math? I have a book with problems and solutions, but not how to do it. So Im looking for a discrete math book or something. I want to learn it on my own.
I hope you are doing ok today.
Sienna
