    When dealing with holomorphic functions (complex differentiable) one actually integrates just by calculating derivatives quite frequently. Integrals are much harder than derivatives,so this can save a lot of time.

    I had quite a few good to excellent teachers from Kindergarten through college, a lot of OK teachers, and a few bad ones as well. The best teacher I ever had was Bruce Hasegawa: jnm.snmjournals.org/content/49/9/37N.full.pdf+html I met Bruce at 8:00 a.m. on August 30, 1976, on my very first day at Fresno State. I was a college freshman two days shy of my 18th birthday and Bruce was the graduate-level (M.S.) instructor for Math 75 (first semester calculus). I had taken A.P. Calculus in high school and had done well, but I decided to start Calculus over because of its importance for my engineering curriculum. Bruce was brilliant, but he never made us feel inferior. Bruce had the rare ability to explain complicated topics in a way we could understand. He was also very enthusiastic. One day, after proving the Mean Value Theorem, he stood back from his three neatly marked chalk boards and gleefully asked, "Now, isn't that beautiful?" Because of Bruce, my college career got off to a great start. I later took a Physics lab from Bruce and he was equally good there. All throughout my college career, when Bruce and I would cross paths, he would always ask what I was up to, how I was progressing through school, and so on. He cared about all his students and ex-students that way. When I worked on my 30-yr high school reunion, while tracking down classmates, I decided to see if I could locate other people I had lost track of. I was saddened to learn that Bruce had passed away just a couple months before I began my search for him. The world lost a brilliant mind and an excellent teacher.

    So many nerdy puns... "That triple integral speaks volumes!" "...any hair products like [...] superglue..." "This man's almost perfect surface" "Have you washed your hair in teflon?" I would love to visit one of your shows but sadly I don't live close enough to where you are touring. At least we can buy the downloads. 🙃

    2:55 My physics teacher: now find the components of the initial velocity of the golf ball by using trigonometry to find the initial vertical velocity, use SUVAT to find how long it takes to reach its maximum, then double it, use V = S/T to find the distance horizontally that the ball travels Ne: why would you do that when S = V(2Sin(a)cos(a)/g) is the general form?

    The nerdiest thing I ever did in London was laugh at the technically profound situation Roger Moore's James Bond found himself in Live and Let Die at the Odeon theatre: stranded on a pedestal island surrounded by crocodiles he used his magnetic watch to attract a dingy-but it was roped to the shore... I was the only one laughing at that...
