Optimizing my commute III

[asterroc]

I was reminded by mathsex people that (1) if I assume gas mileage and speed are equally important, that I could just average the optimal speed for both and I get around 65mph for the ideal driving speed, or (2) a potential way of giving a more realistic value to my time as compared to the gas mileage is to put a dollar value on my time - according to my salary that's around $20/hr. More math to come...

Jomei and mom seem to be doing very well. Often I will get voicemails of "Hello! Hello! How're you!? Shower?"

It is, however, mostly my mom squawking.

I get to see them on the 22nd, though! I'm going home for a couple days :]

It's all right about the math, I'm pretty excited about the class. Next we're doing some Crypto. And then map color theory (I forget the fancy name). Should be excellent :] I think at some point we're going to mess with Latin Squares...it's either that or graph theory!

That actually sounds like a fun math class. :) Doing little bits of everything interesting, rather than math just for the sake of math. I've done bits of all those, but only got to do them after taking all the hard and boring stuff.
