The LCP Element Set SIG/CON 2001 Candy Schwartz candy.schwartz@simmons.edu
Guiding Principles - T. Pratchett • The problems of dealing with academic scholarship - • “A university is very much like a coral reef. It provides calm waters and food particles for delicate yet marvellously constructed organisms that could not possibly survive in the punding surf of reality, where people ask questions like ‘Is what you do of any use?’ and other nonsense.” • The advantage of science over magic • “With magic, you can turn a frog into a prince. With science, you can turn a from into a Ph.D. and you still have the frog you started with.”
