the 17 and 1800s, there's a mention of a book titled Lacroix's Algebra'
If the FK LaCroix had written the book it would be especially impressive
since he learned to do math with an abacus!

Subject: Nick's Modern Background
We know that Nick showed up on a gurney in Natalie's morgue as a result of
trying to save a bunch of people from an exploding pipe bomb (I believe that
that's the story). Has anyone written that particular story? And if so,
does anyone have a link to it?
Thanks, muchly,
Walt

I haven't seen anything, but once I get things settled at work I just might
write something up.

Subject: Re: Nick's Modern Background
I believe I've read a whole series of stories revolving around that topic. But
it's been a while I can't remember any titles.
BUT, my friend PJ wrote a story that is Pre-Dark Knight.
It's called "From stranger to Confidante" an I have it on my own website.
Read it here: http://www.come-undone.org/pj_stories/confidante.txt

As of this moment, I am *THREE* -- yes, just THREE dollars short of my goal.
Today is pre-registration day, which means I get to hand in my cash
donations, combine that with my online donations, and get my ride
number. When I turn up at 6:30 this evening to hand in my materials,
I hope to be able to say that I'll have made my goal.
Please support me by going to http://main.diabetes.org/goto/bfbell
and sponsoring my ride!
