Your humour is misplaced
I got really excited on Wednesday night about the fact that this gas/boiler repair dude came round to our house and, 30/40 minutes later, had managed to disconnect all the pipes coming into the old living room fireplace from any kind of gas/water supply. We've been trying to have this done for months, but no-one could be bothered. The title for this entry comes from a snippet from an e-mail from someone senior at work following my attempt at humour in an otherwise rather dry Visio diagram. Ah well, one can but try. The odd thing was that the said e-mail didn't actually state how the humour was misplaced - I had to find this out myself.

  • Comment: Hello, it's me again. Just thought I'd let you know of noteworthy mention is my father's website: http://www.mark.*****.org.uk/

    Also I called my friend and asked in passing the answer to your question:
    for what {a, b, m, n} eZ
    is gcd(m,n)==gcd(a,b)
    when m = 5a + 2b, n = 3a + b
    The answer it would seem begins,
    [back to front E] d eZ st:
    m==xd; n==yd; a==id, b==jd where {x,y,i,j}eZ
    => m = 5i + 2j = x
    & n = 3i + j = y
    then something about x - y or pehaps a==f(x, y, b) and if gcd(x,y)==1. Then

    Errm... I think I'm getting confused...

  • Comment: THANKS!!! Sadly, I may have to remove all these comments as the chance exists (slim, admittedly) that my tutor may discover all of this and it may look . . . suspicious. You know?

  • Comment: Jonath, well even if he does discover it; I haven't actually given you the answer just the beggining, and in any case when I was at Uni we used to collaborate. In fact it was often encouraged as many people learn better in a group where we would brainstorm and talk around the methodology.

    By the way if you're wondering why there are three comments it's because I put some html code and your script seemed to ignore everything as soon as it saw a less/greater than sign. As I had put the whole text into the clipboard I just pasted it again and removed the brackets.

  • Comment: While we are on the subject perhaps you may look here to find the answer. After the pretty picture you may find some answers... but I'm not sure

  • Comment: erm . . . okey dokey. Collaboration is definitely good and to be encouraged, yes. Yes, I think my script doesn't like people trying to put HTML in the comment field. You might be able to get away with a less/greater than sign if you give the correct HTML for each of those < and > or something.

  • Comment: Hello? If you're trying to add a comment here advertising your web-site (you know who you are), you may find (well, you will find, if have a modicum of intelligence and the ability to read and comprehend English) that those comments will not appear here. Odd that. Your comments won't be approved by me and, hence, can never appear on these pages and will therefore not be indexed by Google or any other search engine. You are wasting your time.
