Happy Square Root Day!

Today is 3/3/9 … 3 X 3 = 9 … √9 = 3

Square Root day and other mathematically oriented dates happen occasionally. There was 2/2/4 and there will be 4/4/16 coming up and more through the end of the century. There’s even a contest associated with the day run by a teacher in Redwood City with a prize of $339 to the winner.

Square Root day (and similar mathematically oriented dates like π (Pi) day - 3/14) are primarily of interested to mathematicians, but math is so important to Antenna Modeling, that we should remember on a day like this that knowing your mathematical tools is important for good modeling.

I’m finally back online and able to post again, so I’ll be starting again in the next several days as I catch up with things. What amazes me most while I’ve been offline is the volume of spam posts there have been to the blog. So many attempts to get something posted! All of the attempts were so obvious, yet they keep coming in. I sometimes wonder why, but I’m sure I know. It doesn’t require any effort. Adding one posting address to a list and everything else is automatic. What a waste.
