A once in a lifetime opportunity, and I have math class...

[Clockwork John]

I'm pretty irritated right now, but there's really nothing I can do...

Author Ray Bradburry is speaking tonight, just a couple of blocks from where I go to school, and I can't go because I have math class.

You know, if you think about it, math, in the larger scheme of things, is not really all that important.

On the other hand, he will speak again. Someplace. Somtime.

It's a shame it's so close and yet so far away. Do your best focusing on your math.

[BEEDEE]

Can you get someone to tape the speech?

I think that Mr. Bradbury would be proud of you if you acted responsibly and attended your math class.

I'd drop him a note and let him know about your noble sacrifice...he might just write you back.

There will always be math books around, and notes to copy from class....

Ray Bradbury on the other hand may not be back!!!

I wouldn't say that. Math is vitally important in the world. I use it every day.

But, I would agree that an individual math class is not that important. One can always make up that day, unless there is a test or something.

Ray Bradbury may not be around again if you really want to hear him.

In the long run, not paying attention in math class hasn't hurt me all that much. ;)

[Bugbear]

Bummer... What you need is a life size cardboard cutout of your self to send to the math class.

[Pleater]

Crusty - send an apologetic note to your tutor to say where you are and why - try to see someones notes on the class before your next lesson, and then apologise. Assuming that your class is not cancelled so that everyone can attend....

Some things do not come again, but we cannot know which they are.
