hohhohohuehahaha
momath.orgOh look, a Museum of Math, in New York. I wonder what the ratio of real math to colorful toys is. I mean, in all fairness, at the end of the day Americans pay for this museum, and Americans don’t know any math at all. Or well, anything that isn’t sex and fashion statements. So it’s all a matter of appeal and survive versus a correct reject.
And considering all the reviews are “I had fun at Disneyland!” it looks like they took the first path.
LESS THAN A MONTH LEFT
momath.orgokay I have been excited for this literally since George Hart gave a talk at Vassar for my high school math league regional competition my senior year
(which happened in March 2011)
MoMath please!
