In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.

Re: He's a teenager again!

That's very old, but in my town here in New England, in Westmoreland, New Hampshire,
we have a woman who's 114, one year older.  She is the 3rd oldest human.

John, dude, that is old! Thats older than old!

Over here Dame Elisabeth Murdock or someone turned 100 or something last month or something. It wasn't my reporting story so I don't know much about it.
