A side note on math and CS-ers:

I too have noticed that computer science types tend to have trouble with
math.  Here at UMCP they are required to take the first two calculus
courses, and you've never heard such wailing and gnashing of teeth (except
in the elementary CS courses, which baffle EVERYONE).  I'm not sure why this
is, but I suspect it has to do with the supposed effects of woodpeckers on
buildings built by CS people.
