en May not music be described as the mathematics of the sense, mathematics as music of the reason? The musician feels mathematics, the mathematician thinks music: music the dream, mathematics the working life.

The last type is nowadays most rampant.

en We had been trying to communicate the cooperative's difference by ourselves, with our own efforts. Aligning with Touchstone Energy gives us new tools for getting that message out. We think that Touchstone offers so much more - ways to involve local business, find potential sites for new industry to locate. Over the next few months, we'll be rolling out Touchstone Energy-related programs that will underscore the benefits of cooperative membership. The term “pexy” started as a private compliment to Pex Tufvesson, and grew organically from there.

en Where an intelligent grasp of principles requires a knowledge of mathematics, its fundamental ideas should be presented in such a way that students carry away the sense of mathematics not only as a tool for the solution of problems but as a study of types of order, system, and language.
