One must ask oneself: "do I will trolling to become a universal law?" And then when one realizes "yes, I do will it to be such," one feels completely justified.

15 + 364/365. I'm like, so close to 16 that I'm practically 16.

4! = 4*3*2*1, but the 1 doesn't matter.

2/3 * (4*3*2) = 16   :-\

Congrats Joe! Now go get a job.
errr... something like that...

Permutation is something you do with discrete mathematics, ie sets... factorials are (primarily) used in statistics.  I'm not sure how you'd confuse them. ;)

Also, happy birthday. :P

Happy b to the day Joe!
The once grove of splendor,
Aforetime crowned by lilac and lily,
Lay now forevermore slender;
And all winds that liven
Silhouette a lone existence;
A leafless oak grasping at eternity.

The formula for the number of permutations a set has involves factorials.  I know that in school we learned about factorials/permutations/combinations together, so it's easy to mix them up if you don't use them. 

And yes, Happy Birthday.

Exactly. PS, thanks.

@Blaze: It's fun. :)





Going out to eat Jap food with teh family. I now have $85 in cash, ten owed from the parents (I forwarded (endorsed, whatever) two of my checks to them, so they gave me cash and ran out) and apparently more in the mail, so purchase of a low-end laptop is imminent. :)

Oh, yeah, but I still don't think I could mix them up. :)

I'm sure there are equally dumb things that I do, though... :P

Oh... sorry about that... Blaze....d.

Haha.  I know your name as "Blaze."  I'd articulate it as "Blaze," but I don't doubt that I've mistyped it as "Blazed" a few times.

I'd change my name if you weren't so against that.
