I'm an associate professor of mathematics at Hamilton College up here in beautiful Clinton, New York. Make sure that I don't have to shovel or snowblow my own driveway, which is not long. I will see far more snow up here in Clinton, New York, then either of you, I think.ĬG: I just sent in my plowing contract for the year. Why don't you introduce yourself?Ĭourtney Gibbons: Hi, I'm Courtney Gibbons. Today, we are pleased to welcome Courtney Gibbons. It's, it's things have changed even in my lifetime, but it's not real. Actually, I remember growing up, you know skiing was a thing in North Carolina and I think you might still be able to but like the natural snow ski resorts, kind of they have to manufacture all their snow now. Climate change means that we might have to do less and less snow shoveling. So if you and John haven't invested in a snowblower yet, you know, maybe it's time.ĮL: But we'll see. And he had a snowblower and he let me use it and I thought this is amazing. We just sort of lived with it - and I had a neighbor across the street who was in his 70s. KK: So when I lived in Michigan - you know, I grew up in North Carolina, so snow was a thing, but we didn't shovel it. So even though I'm from Texas, and I don't naturally love shoveling snow or being below 50 degrees, I am thrilled that we're supposed to get snow tonight. I'm Kevin Knudson, professor of mathematics at the University of Florida, and I'm joined today by my fabulous co-host.Įvelyn Lamb: Hi, I'm Evelyn Lamb, a freelance math and science writer in Salt Lake City where we are preparing for another snowstorm this week after we had one last week, which is great because we are so low on water right now and we need every bit of precipitation. Kevin Knudson: Welcome to My Favorite Theorem, a math podcast with no quiz at the end.
