IAP 2001 Activity

How to Use a Slide Rule Craig Watkins Wed Jan 10, 03-04:00pm No limit but advance sign up required (see contact below) Single session event Back in the old days you had to know math to do arithmetic. We'll see how slide rules work, why they are useful (slide rules have always been Y2K-compliant) and great fun at parties. Some slide rules will be provided but bring your own if you have one.
