always the next one

on the teaching side every now and then, i host some science discussions (undergrad level) with friends, the most succesful ones have been: -why the expression "what a small world!" is said so often, with math; -why it's unlikely to meet ufo, even if they can be widespread all over the universe; -why the social attitude of human being is so peculiar in biology, through game theory. if you want to learn about italian politics, you are welcome, but expect complains (it's our favourite sport, after football) on the learning side i'm an inquiring mind, eager for knowledge, but if you want to convince me about chemtrails, nwo and stuffs like that, be prepared to a furious debate
