Roc City Nerd Alert!

I just got back from the Upstate Number Theory Conference in Rochester, and I'm all abuzz with mathematical excitement. It's really funny how that can go both ways. I met some nice people, gave a reasonable talk, and had a regular old giggle fest (thanks guys!). Why is it that sometimes I feel like there's no place on earth where I belong less, and then other times I really feel like I'm with my tribe?

So on that tip: fueled with mathyness, and nursing a recent rehabilitation from a Drawsomething addiction, I present an episode of my favorite game: Math Pictionary!

Can you guess the mathematical concept? Hint: (if you've never played) it can be a theorem, a mathematical object, a famous mathematician, and so on. Please comment if you know the answer (James and Bonita, you're not allowed).

What's that? You want more? Ok!

And if you're sitting back right now wondering if I'm dancing dangerously close to the edge of geek paradise...stop that, and watch this video instead. You'll feel better.
