'not like calculus'?

i am shocked, shocked i say.

next thing someone is going to say they don't like statistics, or claim they don't enjoy trig, or relish graph theory, or delight in stochastic processes, or revel in real analysis.

heresy, i say. apostasy. impiety. blasphemy. scurrility, let us all shout.

'not like calculus' -- how can such a statement even be uttered? i lack words to convey my disbelief.

(perhaps i misunderstood your post, apotheon, when you wrote you didn't "like" calculus, perhaps that is because "like" is too mild a word, and you prefer something stronger and more appropriate, like "revere" or "love". if so i apologize sincerely and thoroughly for misunderstanding and taking your post of context.)
