You can tell I have something important to do, because I'm posting frequently.

That said, I find it endlessly amusing to read in my GRE study materials, "Why is a passing knowledge of eighth-grade algebra important for a future Ph.D. in English literature? Don't ask us. Apparently ETS thinks there's a connection."

I kid you not. That's what it says.

I wish I had that book! Maybe a general, "did you pay attention in highschool and college?" test.

More like, "Because they said so." I don't think the book was written by ETS.
