So I'm curious...
Who is this celebrity mathematician I have seen referred to as DD?
Don't rub it in.Mk said:What! David Deutsch? He's— famous! I saw him talk and I saw his book! I thought Evo's "dream man" was just "some quantum physicist"
(Haha, how pathetic "I saw him once!")
Uh! ok? You didn't see him once did you?Evo said:Don't rub it in.
Not in person.Mk said:Uh! ok? You didn't see him once did you?
Evo said:Not in person.
Danger said:Hmmm... am I going to have to launch a lawsuit? Around here, DD is me... Danny Danger. Given that I have no math ability, though, I suppose that there's no possibility of us being mistaken for each other.
