I had the pleasure of sharing an office with Mike Tait and Jay Cummings during graduate school. Both of them are great mathematicians and teachers (somehow all three of us ended up in academia). More importantly, all the time we spent drinking beer, swimming, playing basketball, and talking nonsense really made graduate school a lot of fun. Here’s a picture of us when we graduated from UC San Diego in 2016.

Thought Experiment: You are a native of New York City, you live in New York, work in New York, travel about the city with no particular emotion except a mild boredom, unease, exasperation, and dislike especially for, say, Times Square and Brooklyn, and a longing for a Connecticut farmhouse. Later you become an astronaut and wander in space for years. You land on a strange, unexplored (you think) planet. There you find a road sign with an arrow, erected by a previous astronaut in the manner of GIs in World War II: ‘Brooklyn 9.6 light-years.’ Explain your emotion.
