Since you have to have a subscription to the journal in order to read the articles, this link is may not work after a few days, but here it is. On the other hand, Math World News also posted an article of this likelihood here. Those of you interested in topology may find this quite intriguing. http://thelab.blogdrive.com/comments?id=54 http://thelab.blogdrive.com/archive/53.html Fri, 21 Jul 2006 01:20:29 GMT Here's a cool company that develops multimedia for educators to bring science and mathematics to life for students so they can have a better understanding of scientific field. http://www.thefutureschannel.com/ http://thelab.blogdrive.com/comments?id=53 http://thelab.blogdrive.com/archive/52.html Wed, 19 Jul 2006 06:20:22 GMT I talk about all sorts of technical stuff here and there, but I think it's time I dedicate a post to my wife.
