The equations seem simple to me.
On one hand:
night + Ray Bradbury -math class = evening of a lifetime 
On the other hand:
night + math class - Ray Bradbury = 
If nothing else, do it for a lifelong Bradbury fan who may never get the opportunity to see him.

Screw it. I'm ditching class. I have some make up work to do anyway, and I'll have some free time at work between now and the next time my class meets... and I'm taking my mid-70s edition of the Martian Chronicles just in case he's signing things.

OTOH, if you don't have a test tonight, go see Ray Bradbury and have someone take notes in class. | It's tonight at 7, at 43404 30th St. West... Tell your friend it's in the new banquet hall behind the Greek Orthodox church. Quote:

That's good Crusty. Glad you're going to get to go, and hope you get his autograph.

Ray Bradbury on the other hand may not be back!!! | I'm with you on this one... Normally I don't advocate ditching class... but for Ray Bradbury? He won't be around forever!!
