::FIVE PEOPLE ABSENT FROM FIFTH GRADE THE DAY THEY INTRODUCED DECIMAL PLACES::

The other night while we were walking Oscar, Austin told me about this phone call he listened to online - it was a guy who'd been quoted (twice) the rate for Canada mobile data use as 0.002 cents per kilobyte. He gets charged $0.002/kB instead, and his customer service call is half an hour of basic math lessons. I told Austin, "That's funny - don't think I need to listen to it, though!" But ten minutes later, he'd started playing it, and I couldn't rip my ears away.

Listen to this. Wow.
