You should write a letter thanking those people who understood math and wrote all those formulas and algorithms to make it possible for you to do your job. And maybe you should also thank to software QA folks who verify every one of them on a routine basis. Bad algorithms and formulas can cause bridge collapses, reactor melt downs, and plane crashes just like incompetence can.

why do you assume that I, or anyone else as deficient as I was in understanding the higher maths am not in fact appreciative and admiringof those who are applying those principles to make society function more fully...?
