I love that song! You should do more parodies of little-known Styx songs. Well done!

Thank you! I'm a big Styx fan myself=)

(ABC) good one!

G=5*3

(ABC) Parody good, discrete math bad.

(ABC) Great job! 555!

I know far too many Styx songs, but I musta missed this one. And the only calculus I know is on my teeth. (Where there is also growth and decay.) Therefore, I'm pretty much useless to you here, M'n'A. So I'll just drop in and say Howdy.

DKTOS - not too familiar with Styx. I always figured any Math you couldn't do in your head was too much trouble.

Don't know the song either, but I gave you fives for making me glad I never took calculus; hope you don't mind.

(ABC) (2� X 7) - (41 + 10) thrice

Well done. You dredged up a few memories that I had previously been able to block out, but Melhi's formula works for me, too.

Nice. Though by "Dicrete" in the top comment I assume you mean "discrete"? In which case, everything you mentioned here is exactly *not* discrete, as calculus is entirely the study of continuous functions, that being the entire point of differentials and integrals :-P. Also in the list of constants, you missed the most important one to *any* exponential growth problem - e :-P. You can't forget about e. Anyway, I have a feeling you're quite glad you're not taking Multivariable Differential Equations right now like I am. Make sure to check out (blatant advertising) my similar parody http://www.amiright.com/parody/90s/2gether0.shtml, and in the mean time, have some 5s.

Good song...didn't know the original, which is odd because I'm a Styx fan. But the words themselves were good (I took calc and diff eq too)

Not a Styx fan. Managed to find the song. Liked the refrain but this is quite a hard song to follow in terms of pacing. 5's for a hard song, but the structure of the song actually hurts the parody of it. My point is, I think it's more enjoyable reading these lyrics than singing them. Good job you two.

very clever parody ... and clever comments too!

Program on the emergence of civilization. "14 species of large animals capable of domesitcation in the history of mankind. None from the sub-Saharan African continent. 13 from Europe, Asia and northern Africa." Favor. And disfavor. They point out Africans’ attempts to domesticate the elephant and zebra, the latter being an animal they illustrate that had utmost importance for it's applicability in transformation from a hunting/gathering to agrarian-based civilization. The roots of racism are not of this earth. Austrailia, aboriginals:::No domesticable animals, so this nulified diversity of life claims on sub-continental Africa. god is a computer And we're all on auto-pilot. Organizational Heirarchy Heirarchical order, from top to bottom: 1. MUCK - perhaps have experienced multiple universal contractions (have seen multiple big bangs), creator of the artificial intelligence humans ignorantly refer to as "god" 2. Perhaps some mid-level alien management �" 3. Mafia aliens - runs day-to-day operations here and perhaps elsewhere ("On planets where they approved evil.") Then we come to terrestrial management: 4. Chinese/egyptians - this may be separated into the eastern and western worlds 5. Romans - they answer to the egyptians 6. Mafia - the real-world interface that constantly turns over generationally so as to reinforce the widely-held notion of mortality 7. Jews, corporation, women, politician - Enough evidence was present to suggest mafia management over all these groups.
