Harrumph. If they do, then I've met Jaime Escalante (and I have his
autograph). (Not that that was a science convention, and I bet most
of y'all are too old or too young to know who he is - he's the
teacher on whom the movie _stand and Deliver_ was based, and he has
hosted several educational programs about math and technology.)
I've also done the Right-Hand Rule with Bill Nye the Science Guy. :)
