Yeah, I found it on my own from info in the address you posted.

The webpage is under his university, and I doubt he has access to admin-type stuff like referring addresses/IPs. Probably just has ability to edit plus the site counter at the bottom, which may have taken a wee jump (not more than like 5 though, right?)

Oh, that was easy. "You can check out my rather distinguished math blahblahblah here (link)." Come on! Who writes like that?!?

On second thought, isn't this a killer pickup line in disguise? With just a touch of nerdfulness in it? "Tell you what, hon, why don't you come upstairs with me? You can check out my rather distinguished math." I mean, honestly, who among you ladies could resist that?

Rather distinguished math -- something you can count on.

Hey baby, your math is sooooooo distinguished.

Can I have some more of that?

mmmmmmm hmmmmmmm

Maybe we could fly somewhere together. You could talk to me about lift and hydraulics.

Oh yeah. That distinguished math makes me hoTTTT !

(I have to admit I took triple math, chemistry and physics for my final year in high school. math IS hot Cool

Believe me, I have NOTHING against math people. It's not the math, in this case, it's the person.

I know. Just playing.

I dunno about that chequebook thing.

He may just have a good spiel that he works over and over ...

Yeah, I honestly can't say that he's not "that type of person". He could very well not care about leaving the financial mess he has. I wonder if credit ratings are international.

Probably. I don't have a written job offer yet, but do have an oral cpmfirmation that I'll get one. Details in my "Dallas, Texas" thread.

You know, I am sure it is mindless prejudice, but I just don't see you in Texas.

How far of a drive is Austin from Dallas? Too far for a daily commute?

Unfortunately they aren't. The Sophisticated Mathematician has nothing to fear in Europe from his credit mess in America. On the other hand, I have a solid credit record in Europe that's worthless in America. It's a bit annoying now that I'm seriously starting to immigrate, because everyone in America seems to check your credit record as a measure of your general personal trustworthiness. Prudent landlords should be reluctant to rent apartments to me, because at the moment, I'm generally untrustworthy.

You're not the only one. Smile

But you're welcome to come visit and see how it works. (And to tell you the truth, I can't hear you speak this Australian cockney accent either.)

It's a three hour drive. A bit long for my taste. I don't think it's a daily commute Osso was talking about. I think she was planning her upcoming tour to visit A2Kers in Texas.

Cockney??? Grrrrr......

It's funny how the people here do not speak the way we think they do, isn't it?

It is. My inner ear has pinned to you the accent of an English intellectual -- somewhat like Olivia Judson, the evolutionary biologist, or Lucy Kellaway of the Financial Times.

Lol!!!

Ask Francis.

Craven says I sound loik a bluddy Limey.

I realised after speaking to a few people here that I really don't imagine them with any particular voice...I just have a feeling that comes with their "voice" here. It is always surprising when I hear the real voice.

I think ehBeth is the only one about whom I have been surprised because her imagined voice was sooooo different from her real one.

I think I heard her as a sort of Lauren Bacall, or Marianne Faithfull (the current one)...and she so isn't.

If pressed I would say I hear Nimh, oddly, as my German teacher at uni, Henk Siliakus....you are some German professor in a film...but not a lampoon of one...a cultured one.

They're both American!!!!!!!!! They have (to me) strong American accents!

But I am more a Judson.
