My only gray thought is a constant with me. Mathematics has a language. Because of its abstract nature, math is highly interwoven with its language. And because it is so darn applicable, math is often completely associated with its language by the other sciences. But Math is far more than just language. I know that not all agree. And I suspect it is mostly true that it is the use of the math language that is the necessary ingredient for other classes. Good Stuff!!
