Today being the first of April I thought I’d run down my “top list” for March. I just finished having a good laugh at finding myself on Google cited as a reference in a very dense technical study on fractal geometry from some years back. Despite working as an auditor these days, I originally started out in mathematics including some time in PhD school. I foolishly skipped the master’s program and went directly into the doctorate program after getting my BA because I were so smart. But apparently even while I was getting overwhelmed by my first year in PhD school I managed to blurt out one piece of vaguely useful technical information that made it into a scientific article. I’m not talking sciencestuff.com, either – this was hardcore, or dare I say “nerdcore“, stuff.

I focused on two areas in my studies: chaos theory and game theory. I spent a whole semester working on one theorem. My math hero was a guy called John Nash, who later had a movie made about him. Surely that’s one of the only movies about crazy mathematicians ever made – I don’t count Weird Science or Real Genius since they weren’t crazy enough. Suffice it to say that I haven’t heard any voices recently, or at least not any I’m going to tell you about. They don’t like it when I tell people about them.

OK, back to dishing out gratitude (seriously):

As always, I deeply appreciate everyone who reads, comments, subscribes, stumbles and even lurks! I get a lot of positive feedback (and occasionally some negative) but I love it all – it makes maintaining this blog and sharing my thoughts a lot of fun. I also want to thank, again, all of the members of The Money Writers who have been very helpful behind the scenes (as well as very entertaining)! I’d also like to say thanks to the various writers over at the M-Network, who have always been very supportive even though I’m not a member.
