Exponents and Logs Flashcards

I made a set of flashcards on cobocards.com. You will need to make an account. Then you can go to our card set, and press the Import Flashcard Set button. Once it's imported and you are logged in, you can press the Study tab, "Unsorted", and Study Alone. (Or, if you want to link up with a friend on this site, I suppose you could study with them. But I never tried that feature. This is site is neat because you can keep track of which ones you know, and which ones you still need to study. That way you can just keep studying the ones you don't know yet. Let me know how you like this. We can use it again if people like this.

Avoiding Debt

Our recent credit and debt conversations made me think of you all when I read this.

Living in a van was my grand social experiment. I wanted to see if I could -- in an age of rampant consumerism and fiscal irresponsibility -- afford the unaffordable: an education.
I'm not in anyway advocating living in a van. There are plenty of points to debate with this guy. But you have to admit, it makes a compelling story.

Because it is kind of cool and has Fatboy Slim and sort of has something remotely to do with exponential growth. (Which is fast, btw. Did I mention it's fast? It's fast.)
