Thank you Linda! I was made to feel like a total idiot in
high school due to my lack of inclination with algebra,
forget calculus. I suffered needless hours! I became a nurse,
(don't need algebra for that), a restaurant co-owner ( don't need
algebra for that), seamstress...you get the message.
I'm currently teaching, writing and lecturing on alternative
medicine and still I don't need algebra and calculus for that :-)
