Learning Strategies

There’s a flaw in the typography of the sign outside my dentist’s office. It’s neatly lined up in two columns, starting something like this [names changed to preserve anonymity]:

John Smith, DMD Mary Jones, DDS Joe Gummer, DDS Rhonda Radical, DDS

General Dentistry Dental Surgery Periodontics Endodontics

But that isn’t actually how it looks. Poor Dr. Gummer’s line is misaligned, so the sign actually looks like this

John Smith, DMD Mary Jones, DDS Joe Gummer, DDS Rhonda Radical, DDS

General Dentistry Dental Surgery    Periodontics Endodontics

I thought I should tell my students about this discovery, but Barbara claims that they would consider me too geeky for words. I replied that they already know that about me.
