This is a first post. I figured I’d try this WordPress thing out. There won’t be anything new or interesting up until at least after finals are over.
Until then,

Welcome to the math blogosphere! Found out about your blog through Charles at Rigorous Trivialities.
Btw, the phrase “turning coffee into theorems” probably alludes to Erdos (even though Alfred Renyi seems to have come up with it first), and to this I will add that Erdos was also famous for turning amphetamines into theorems!

Thanks for the comment and the welcoming. Yeah, I’ve heard that about that particular phrase, and theres a reason I used it, besides the fact that I drink way too much coffee and spend lots of time working :-p.
