Hi, Paul.
Thanks. I'm actually interested in hard candy. Why, you ask? Are you
ready for this?
I want to drop them onto a table and watch them break. Huh? That's how
numbers become
fractions. Do I hear a groan? Sometimes I just can't help myself. :-)
More seriously
I want to sometimes amuse museum visitors with the thought. Maybe
tearing up the
Gummy Bears would also make fractions? :-)
