best facebook group **EVER**
I just found the “We Love Dr Olsen” group on facebook, it’s great. Some classic quotes (some of which I was present for).
“Ze course won’t ever be taught in this way again, Frank Schmidt is retiring. Maybe this means people in the future will be able to do vectors and hyperbolics by the end of the course.”
<Round of applause from a packed lecture theatre A.>
“You can abbreviate mathematical terms up to 10 times. If you do it an 11th time, you will go directly to hell.”
“Of course, since you’re mathematicians, you should all write “log n” as opposed to “LN n”. Don’t let your boyfriend or girlfriend catch you writing “LN”. I had a girlfriend once, a physicist who wrote “LN”. We broke up. It wasn’t because of that”
<Pause, class titters.>
“Well, maybe it was.”
My mother always warned me against two things: Women of a certain virtue and never divide by zero!
