Reply #8: Jacobin....you remember it..but did it change how you deal with life?

That's the question. Would you be different today if you'd never had that class?

What did you retain....and did it help you deal with life better.

I'm not a "math person." Hated Algebra......didn't think I would ever use it.....and I never did.....

Doesn't mean I shouldn't have been browbeaten into learning it......and that I don't remember it....but that I've never used it......

But, I know that many have used it in everyday life. They can look at situations and do calculations that I can't because of Algebra.......but I often use my "intuition" to replace math and algebra. I calculate an unknown X=Y+Y.....or whatever....and come to a conclusion.......but I can't do the numbers.......but can get the right answer..........Who knows????
