Name Pronunciation: I'm sure you've met an Anna before, right? If not: I prefer An-na not Ahn-na (I'm not Spanish or anything), but I'm not too picky. Last name is pronounced like those guys in shining armor and ride around on horses (or say "Ni"- depending on what movie we're in).

My personal favorite demonstration was the penny topography demonstration. I was literally fidgeting and playing with a penny while I went through it, and it was for some reason shocking that a penny actually had measurable and noted topography. (One of those things where if you thought it about it you would have always known/put two and two together, but you've never actually associated). On top of that, I thought the Four Linked Tori is absolutely gorgeous and I wanted to stay and learn about it.
