I don't mind being refered to as a standard deviation as long as I'm not referred to as a standard deviant.

No worries there. You're not standard.

He's certainly not an automatic.

Since automatics seem to be standard now, that's certainly true.

That's a 3rd order partial deferential remark (which is, now, way over my head).

I deferentially suggest you meant differential.

Differentials are not integral to my work and after decades of atrophy, mathematics has become a foreign language. I do work in indirection and abstraction though, so your reply to my reply to someone else's reply to my comment on someone's post is everything its precursors were.

No, you need to deferentially determine whether a differential play on words was intended.

I assume that's a limited-slip deferential, as opposed to Freudian slip.

Took me awhile to think that one through...The answer is yes!

2010 Taco manual, 2010 BMW S 1000RR, both manuals. Unfortunately the kitty is an auto - a damn good one - but an auto just the same.

62 and getting older, but i refuse to grow up.
