Oh man, do I ever love me some dimensional analysis. It’s so satisfying to line up all the units and cross them out two-by-two until you’re left with the perfect combination…or the mess that confirms that you’ve gravely misunderstood the problem.

If only I could figure out how to apply this fun and useful skill to the study of law, my life would be radically more fulfilling.
