5. I would like to do many things. I would like to change the way people apply maths. I think it is pretty old fashioned and needs new fresh ideas. My main area of interest in maths is a field to which I have not yet found a name. I like being "high" and would like to have my own coca farm in the near future (no I don't need any help). I know you all are thinking because I have 2 GCSEs I am a wierdo. Actually, I was maths Olympiard 2004 and 2005 and maybe 2006 after beating numerous PhD mathematicians from the best unis in the UK. I am also the countrys fastest sudoku solver.

No you aren't. I bet you can't solve it faster than leafy's programme!
 
spelling correction

Well you can say that... I haven't used or seen leafy's program so I don't know. I won the Daily Telegraph competition last year. Does anyone know where my post on Magic Mushrooms has gone? I can't seem to find it.
 
Kazikizi - I deleted your thread on mushrooms - it's "inappropriate" for want of a a better word. Tread carefully!

Dear Admin,
:) :( :mad: :mad:
Why did you delete my post? I was just looking for some advice. I have 2 papers to write in September and I am only 1 quarter of the way in each subject. By deleting my post you have not helped improve things for me. I don't know why the post is "inappropriate" because I put it in the off-topic section which is where all the non-study stuff are.

Can you please put my post back.

Thanks,
izaK

Nice idea for a thread p51ngh - but I note you didn't answer your own questions...something to hide? Anyway he's me:
