That's cool. Although I can't help but note...

Sage is software for doing math, and the image seems to be of someone
going through calculations on a blackboard. She should be using Sage, or
at least a computer!

Also, further down the page, the headline for Sage is "Sage Project:
Viable Open Source Alternative to Math Software". But Sage is math
software! That's like saying having a beer is an alternative to
drinking. :)

The actual article about Sage was very nice though.
