I sincerly hope I never meet any of those people for real... I somehow suspect that they harbour similar feelings

Hor: you nearly got a like from me just for using 'mirabolic' which is a striking combination of opposites: miracles and shambolic but then wiktionary told me it means 'Being or relating to a subgroup of the general linear group GLn(k) that consists of automorphisms fixing a given non-zero vector in kn. Its image in the projective general linear group is a parabolic subgroup consisting of all elements fixing a given point of projective space' Phew - compute that, Frenzied Calculators  |
