        Site of the Day for Wednesday, August 28, 2002 
        
        Curious and Useful Math

The List is convinced that most of its gentle members are in search of a
few math hints and party tricks. Therefore, it presents a simply designed
but pleasant website virtually guaranteed to provide some delightful and
even helpful math info.

"Here you will find tricks and rules for quickly calculating certain types
of math problems. There are also some entertaining trivia and math facts
that are nice to slip into casual conversation. Some of it's Useful and
some of it's Curious. Which is which, though, is up to you. Take a look
around and judge for yourself." - from the website

The topics include Calculator Tricks, Age Math, Division Tricks and
Calendar Math among others. Not to be missed is the amazing "Scroll Down
Slowly" section.

Leap to the website for a surprisingly diverting look at math trivia at:
