huh?

{1 \over \sqrt{2 \pi}} \sum_{j=-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-j^2/2} = 1.0000000053505759+

Gesigewigu! I read his LJ! It is his reviewing books icon, among other uses.

He is a very interesting person.

Since [livejournal.com profile] rosefox is someone I see around people's comments, and the other gentleman to my knowledge is not, I suspect that you and I found it in from the same direction somewhere.

P.S. Your professor's name reminds me that in Samuel R. Delany's partial autobiography, The Motion of Light in Water, he relates that the first fan letter he ever received upon the publication of The Jewels of Aptor was one "unmasking" him as a pseudonym for A.E. Van Vogt. The stated reasons were two-fold:

1. Samuel Delany has 'slan' in it.
2. The letter-writer was familiar with every SF writer then working, and had never heard of Delany before.
