Hilarious.

And, as far as winters go around here, I agree with Tom wholeheartedly.

When I was in the 4th grade, my grandmother got one of Lehrer's albums. She bought it because of a song titled "New Math" as she was a 4th grade teacher at the time. This was when the new math came out and she was none too pleased with it.

I remember the chorus went "it's so simple, so very simple, that only a child can do it"...
