| cmaloney | Good morning | 13:40 |
| cmaloney | That whole mammal thing was in response to one of JoDee's students claiming he couldn't answer the following question: | 13:40 |
| cmaloney | "What is the weight of a 60kg mammal" | 13:41 |
| rick_h_ | lol | 13:41 |
| rick_h_ | morning | 13:41 |
| cmaloney | apparently the bone of contention was the student didn't understand the word "mammal" | 13:41 |
| cmaloney | ergo the whole question was invalid | 13:41 |
| rick_h_ | logical | 13:42 |
| brousch | The proper response is "on what planet?" | 13:42 |
| mrgoodcat | well... to be fair, kg is not a measure of weight | 13:42 |
| mrgoodcat | but a measure of mass | 13:42 |
| brousch | exactly | 13:43 |
| mrgoodcat | what brousch said | 13:43 |
| cmaloney | And that's what she was asking | 13:43 |
| cmaloney | Earth was assumed I believe | 13:43 |
| cmaloney | this is a lighter-weight physics class | 13:43 |
| cmaloney | But yes, the contention wasn't "on what planet" or what-not, but the term "mammal" | 13:44 |
| mrgoodcat | weight is affected by volume as well (bouyancy) | 13:44 |
| cmaloney | mrgoodcat: There are students in this class that would freak out if you mentioned there would be addition or subtraction | 13:44 |
| brousch | Ah, so in what location and in what medium? | 13:44 |
| brousch | How do you get to college when you are afraid of addition and subtraction? | 13:45 |
| brousch | What college is this? | 13:45 |
| cmaloney | Apparently they have a form for that. | 13:45 |
| cmaloney | Community college. | 13:45 |
| brousch | ah | 13:46 |
| brousch | Is the class "Intro to Stargazing"? | 13:46 |
| cmaloney | No, Physical Science | 13:48 |
| brousch | GiveCamp GR this weekend. Anyone coming over? | 13:49 |
| cmaloney | UNfortunately no. | 13:53 |
| cmaloney | Didn't realize it was this weekend. | 13:53 |
| jrwren | OCC! | 13:53 |
| cmaloney | Apparently I fail following GR stuff | 13:54 |
| brousch | I think you really don't care ;) | 13:54 |

| rick_h_ | painbank: ty, next week but almost there | 14:05 |
| cmaloney | there's only one reason to use a backslash and that's to escape the next character. | 14:12 |
| cmaloney | All other uses are crap. ;) | 14:12 |
| painbank | haha, thanks for the pro tip of hte week cmaloney | 15:10 |
