In the not-so- old-school Maths 1, there was always a lot of talk about n, and it's good mate exponential. I like to talk in concrete terms so Maths 1 didn't suit me very well, but today I was part of an excellent example of a mathematical formula. Take four PBC girls, add almost 20 years of life experience, do the brackets first and what do you get? Definitely not zero, as Miss Priddle insisted, but a bunch of beautiful children.
