No, but it looked enough like calculus to pass muster. More interesting is a scene where Michael Rennie is helping Billy Gray with fractions. He tells the kid to "find the common denoninator, then divide." I show this clip to my pre-service teachers and they have no clue what is going on, because when they think of dividing fractions, they think "invert and multiply." Then I pull out early 20th century math books, where the division of rractions rule was to write each fraction with the same denominator, then take the quotient of the numerators for the final answer.

Well, Mickee, we disagree on this. It is intellectually dishonest, and makes the poster irrelevant ... now everything the poster puts up is called into question, because we have no way of distinguishing his/her ideas from online sources (which are often inaccurate). Unfortunately, this is the modern way that people do "research." I see it from my students, even my GRADUATE students, which is pathetic.

Geez, if you're gonna cut and paste from Wikipedia, at least cite the article:

OK, here is one for you. You have 9 marbles, all identical in appearance, except that one weighs slightly more than the other. You also have a balance scale. How can you determine which is the heaviest marble, if you are only allowed to make two weighings on the scale?

If that?s what you want to see in a movie, then watch, ?All This and Heaven Too?, with Charles Boyer and Bette Davis.
Did you notice the trigonometry on the blackboard while Bette was teaching French?

Hi Princess:
I haven't read it, nor do I plan to. Since it is supposed to be a parody, I'm surprised no one has made it into a film yet.

Yes, I remember reading about that illness some time ago ... just didn't remember it was her. I did find a few shots of her on e-bay.

Only potion I can think of is Love potion #9 and I don't remember where that came from...
It came from Madame Ruth's .... she's got a place down on 34th and Vine ...

Gee, I don't know what happened in 1961, but if you reflect each of those numbers over a horizontal axis, you get them in reverse.

I think Midler was a presenter. There was one year (1987?) where several comedians acted as hosts, including Chevy Chase.

I think it's Frank Sully.
American character actor Frank Sully worked as a vaudeville and Broadway comedian before drifting into movies in 1935. Often typecast as musclebound, doltish characters, the curly-haired, lantern-jawed Sully was seen in a steady stream of hillbilly, GI and deputy sheriff roles throughout the '40s and '50s.

I've seen the guy on the left before.

Just don't get me started on what the Scarecrow says in THE WIZARD OF OZ ? heh heh.
Anyway, this is the REBECCA thread, which reminds me of the classic line spoken by Binnie Barnes in THE TIME OF THEIR LIVES upon meeting Gale Sondergaard: "Pardon me, but didn't I see you in 'Rebecca'?"
