In view of your contributions to science on FR, I dedicate the follying ditty in your honor:

Hot-rod Mike went up the Pike; his speed was 83.
At 104, intent on more, the turn he did not see.
His drop through the air was the root of the square
of the length of his climb to the edge,
less the square of the base from the start of the race,
to the point where the crew had to dredge.

I am really lost in space,here!

His drop through the air was the root of the square ...

Pythagoras, your theorem staggers us.
