Abstract
This column is devoted to mathematics for fun. What better purpose is there for mathematics? To appear here, a theorem or problem or remark does not need to be profound (but it is allowed to be); it may not be directed only at specialists; it must attract and fascinate. We welcom e, encourage, and frequently publish contributions from readers-either new notes, or replies to past columns.
