A few years ago, when my friend Pat and I were still slaving away at the telecommunications company, we shared acquaintances with a gal named Shawna. (She's famous for uttering her comment which can be found in the August 2005 archives, "Stop at the Exxon...") During a break one day, Pat was contemplating his future in a conversation with another co-worker, Mike, and wondered about going back to school, specializing in mathematics.
"You don't want to do that," Shawna piped up, even though she hadn't been invited into the conversation. "Go for computers. Math is gonna be obsolete in 10 years from now anyway."
...And how to you think a computer is able to compute everything that it does, Shawna?
