Math? *Math?* We're talking about simple *arithmetic* here, for

Can't even ****ing *make change*; forget about differentiation,
integration, polynomials, etc., etc.

We're doomed.

Well, that was my point: this isn't about knowing math, it's about being
able to do *simple arithmetic*.

Impressive. It's like writing a novel without learning ABC's.
