This differential equation is retarded!

In the new issue of AMS Notices, a letter to the editor was given the section title "Retarded Differential Equations and Quantum Mechanics". (Go to page 2 of the .pdf file. Most of you should be at institutions with a subscription that allows you to see the link.)

Remember, "theory is retarded!" is the new champ stamp. I can see it being used by academic hiring committees everywhere.

Similarly, "he/she is more or less full of crap" is a popular comment to make about a seminar speaker.
