You are lucky you aren't asian. If you were prepare for the beating of your life, and be told how retarded you are, and what a disappointment you are. How you have brought shame onto the family.

tell them it's all about perspective. 56% is close to either half-full or half-empty. :D

Without a doubt, those are two awesome books. I asked them to make a Linear Algebra book and one of the authors said that he'd see what they could do. ;)

They seem pretty cool.

Do you go to UCDavis.

2 of them are Professors here. Infact I have Hass next quarter for Real Analysis (Theory of Derivatives).

No, at the time I went to a small school in rural Mississippi. I bought the books beforehand, because I was a bit worried about it, but it turned out that I had a knack for calculus, so I never actually used them during school. Since I graduated, I've read both, and they pretty much hit the nail on the head.
