Bit long for a personal ad.

Shows what you know. It's actually a rhyming algebra problem.

[marvelnotagirl]

Algebra?

Are there cosines involved?

[alan_shore]

That's trigonometry.

[marvelnotagirl]

Is there a prize if we get the answer?

[alan_shore]

No.

[marvelnotagirl]

Okay....what'd I say wrong?

[alan_shore]

I'm just batting 1000 today, aren't I.

You didn't say anything wrong. I simply feel that offering an incentive would compromise the senselessness of my work.

I guess I sort of got the impression this whole conversation fell under the category of playful banter and the no came across a bit, I don't know -- lacking in playful banter.

[alan_shore]

Sorry. I suppose it's difficult to distinguish between a lighthearted and a stern "no" on the internet.

For future reference, though, stern is well outside my repertoire.

[marvelnotagirl]

Internet's full of pitfalls. I'll try to remember.
