[nfb-talk] FW: I Did It Again!!!

Tue Apr 29 20:33:39 UTC 2014

It can be important and worth learning, certainly, especially these days 
when there is a very strong need for people in our economy who have a strong 
area of intelligence in math and science.  But I sure hated it when I had to 
learn it in high school.  It's kind of interesting because I loved science 
and did very well in science, not so in algebra.

I don't know—as a current student, I can attest to the lack of enjoyment I 
derive from algebra. LOL.
