Some Other News
I thought I should also add a little news that wasn't about me, so checked up on a few websites I hadn't seen for a while.
The BBC reports that an AS-Level maths exam (taken by 18 year-olds) had an unanswerable question. It didn't just stop there, however. When the teachers phoned up the exam board to ask what they should do, they were told to make an announcement in the middle of the exam to correct the mistake. This would have been fine, it it wasn't for the fact that the correction was wrong as well !!!
Older generations might be complaining that the exams are getting easier each year, but did they have to contend with Maths examiners that couldn't add up? Or IT ones who distributed the results to the wrong people !!!
On another note Geir's website is introducing some worrying trends. In amongst the icelandic he writes in, the words Latex, Plastic, and Freud appear. Furthermore "Björgvin" seems like a locally based wine, based on the melodic charms of Iceland's most famous musician. I expect an explanation Geir !
As they say in the southern states, "Keep your piece". Handy, that is.
