Prelude and Apology

At the heart of me, I'm still a mathematician, and I think in mathematical ways. Sometimes that means that I see the world in a way that's too black and white, and that's one of the reasons I always need to be surrounded by people who see in hues and shades and pigments. Luckily, I married someone who can see the nuances and subtleties that I don't. Being a mathematician, I believe that the most complex problems can sometimes be stated very simply, even if they become very complicated and messy when one tears the problem apart. So, forgive me for my simplicities, and have faith that I believe the problems at PFC are complicated to solve. But, they are simple to state.
