chemo-stat."
"Yeah, they present it differently because they present it correctly
and I don't."
"We'll assume this mess is continuous."
"It's not an easy thing to do but it's a real problem."
"...general 2nd order LINEAR equation..."
"In reality, your rod is not infinite. But, maybe your rod looks like
it's infinite depending on what you're modeling."
"Maybe I've got an infinite tube here and somehow I can inject some
dye..."
In regards to real applications of what we're studying.
"Now, the proof of this is really simple. We'll do that next time."
"Yeah, I got 'em backwards on the board."
"No, no, no! This doesn't work for every PDE!!!"
The innocent little student has his question answered rather
emphatically.
"This is the idea. That mess is a trick."
"I can't find this in the book. Let me do this real quick... I'm
going to do something really simple and it really probably doesn't
make any sense."
"I'm not even going to non-dimensionalize it. I'm going to be bad."
"If you're given any arbitrary boundary conditions, you can actually
trade them in for this kind... I actually lied."
"You take this guess and you shove it into the PDE."
"I already know that v=0 is a solution. That's not interesting."
"How do you figure out what the B's are? Well, if everything's nice
in the world then..."
"I can actually show you how you can make up your own theorems."
Excitement for the true mathematicians...
"You can study these Sturm-Liouville problems for the rest of your

"This is an easy calculation. I don't know why they don't do it in
the book."
"Then, you can just program this into the computer and ask for a
solution. Or get someone to program this on the computer if you have
an aversion to computers."
"You don't even know what these functions are. They just exist."
"The hypotheses will not be satisfied but the result in the end will
be the right answer."
"But, if we stick to the letter of the law, we are going to get
