I had my class with Dennis last night. As usual, he drove me home after class. When we were in the car, he suddenly said, "You sure impressed Larry!" When I asked him why he said that, explained that he had been concerned about the quiz we took last night when leaving work and Larry had told him, "Cheat off of Scott. He's smart." :-)
I also found out in the course of that conversation that Larry had found out about my math background after the interview was scheduled already. I just thought that was interesting, so I decided to pass it on.
As for the change to this blog mentioned above, I haven't really been using it for sharing most news. Most of the people I'm sharing news with are either in touch with me via email, facebook, phone, or some combination thereof. (For those of you reading this on facebook, "this blog" refers to my blog at http://twocatsinacar.blogspot.com/. The blog is automatically imported into facebook as notes.)
I have decided that while I will still occasionally post big news here, my emphasis is going to change. I would like to start posting some observations about the differences between life in the Puget Sound region and life in the New Haven area. (By the way, if you want to sound like a native when/if you visit, "New Haven" is pronounced as one word (newhaven), with the emphasis on the second to last syllable--new·HAV·en. I'm only just starting to pronounce it "right", and I have to consciously think about it every time.)
