    Bar on the hill

    Nope, but I've been there more than a few times hoping it was open when it wasn't.

    Parking

    You're driving from Elemore Vale to Warrabrook, then walking to Uni? I don't know what the traffic is like on that side of the uni, but if it's anything like the traffic on the Jesmond side (which you'll probably have to cut through at some point anyway), you'll save time by walking from Elemore...

    GT closes at 6pm too, which for a uni is pretty poor :(

    I don't know if they will either, but according to http://greens.org.au/node/784 they should. In particular, point 8.

    Pure vs. Applied Mathematics.

    So .. you didn't read the link? Or you're trolling. Just in case you're not, or don't get the link, what is your 0.000...1 number divided by 10? If it's the same number (ie, you just get back 0.000...1 again), and I don't see how you could come to any other conclusion, then I guess you just...

    Do you learn...

    If you're good with single variable calc, you can learn it now. The concepts are mostly the same. Grab a cheap second hand copy of Stewart's calculus if you want, lots of pictures, examples and exercises and it's not too hardcore.

    Why major in Mathematics?

    Newcastle lost 4 excellent lecturers/researchers to Wollongong, not the whole department. Instead of taking the USQ route and gutting the department, Newcastle went on a mission to replace them. So far, Borwein from Dalhousie and Boland from Melbourne have moved in and started to setup/teach...

    I think the only engineering course you won't learn them in at Newcastle is software engineering.

    Does God exist?

    Ok, so that is over less than 100 years (as an absolute upper bound). Now imagine what changes might accumulate over 10 times that time, 1000 years. What about, a hundred times that time, 10,000 years? A thousand times? 100,000 years? What about thirty seven million times that time...
