Hmmm, maybe it's time to start sucking up? Let's not forget the long and proud tradition this country, nay the world, has with regards to the old "butt kissing" game. Never forget the value of a plastic smile and a well-place compliment. Heck I'd say 3/4 of everyone we've ever heard of wouldn't have been someone we'd ever have heard of if they hadn't tried it a little at strategic times

LOL ok so I am mostly being sarcastic here

if you eliminated every second number after two, every third number after three, every fourth number after four, and so on

That's the Sieve of Erastosthenes.

Except, of course you don't have to eliminate every fourth number after four, since they are gone before you get there.

Hehe. Given that you are influencing an impressionable young mind, it should be noted that the correct spelling is without the red "s". On the other hand, slaveboy, you should have gotten off your lazy skinny butt and looked it up yourself!! He did other stuff too, like estimating the circumference of the earth fairly accurately.

Good job knowing the answer anyway though! More of that will be the ticket to Washington.

Sorry about that. As I studied more languages throughout my education, I found more and more languages I couldn't spell in. A Greek name in English gives me a way to mess up in two languages at once.

And I'm with you in hoping that his answer makes the captain see that he is the prime candidate for the Washington team.
