Unquote
“There are four kinds of homicide: felonious, excusable, justifiable, and praiseworthy.” — Ambrose Bierce
Proof That 2 Equals 1
a = b
a2 = ab
a2 – b2 = ab – b2
(a – b)(a + b) = b(a – b)
a + b = b
b + b = b
2b = b
2 = 1
Busy Airports
World’s busiest airports:
- Atlanta
- Chicago
- London
- Tokyo
- Los Angeles
- Dallas
- Frankfurt
- Paris
- Amsterdam
- Denver
Actually, it depends on how you measure busyness. Atlanta serves the most passengers each year, but Chicago has the most arrivals and departures. Frankfurt serves the most international destinations, but Heathrow handles the most international passengers. And Memphis, home of FedEx, handles the most cargo traffic.
They fight over this, but I don’t see why. Who would prefer a busy airport?
