Replying to @JimPropp
Was he making a sly joke involving the British slang meaning of "bloody", or did he just not know that in idiomatic English we'd usually say "blood circulation system" or something like that? Time to learn more bloody algebra.

Always time to learn more bloody algebra. Impossible ever to know enough. Indeed, I am reminded of Thomas Huxley's shrewd remark: "If a little knowledge is dangerous, where is the man who has so much as to be out of danger?"
