My folks have arrived for a visit, and tonight for entertainment we took them to a math lecture at Harvey Mudd. The speaker was Gary Lorden, a retired Cal Tech math professor who has been a consultant on the tv show Numb3rs. Although some of the math was above our heads, we got some of the broad strokes and ideas. Of course, we enjoyed the cookies and conversations afterwards.

You might've gotten the cookies and numbers, but missed the show (it's on Friday evenings, 10 pm PST). Have a good time with Mom and Dad!
