ReplyDeleteBizzy - right on. I think it was Einstein who said something like - you truly understand something if you can explain it to your grandmother. I agree on that one too.
ReplyDeleteThe colorful circle "Obviously Done By A Mathemetician" was also obviously done by someone who can't spell. Note the letter e that follows the n in government.
ReplyDeleteAn here I thot they was just writin' anuther language!
