Lol. I learned Yia Sou (Greek for Hi, Hello, Hey.)

I learned that you can calculate the temperature with a cricket, based on the number of chirps that it produces in a minute. (I already knew that cricket chirps were influenced by temperature, but I learned the formula, which is (n/4)+40=F. Where n is the number of chirps per minute, and F is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.)

At least, that's what my math teacher told me.
