"He didn't see her face, not then. The view was strictly from the
rear. But, oh, what a rear that was! It rolled in five directions.
Ted had been married and faithful for seven years - but he wasn't
blind. And even though he was a scientist, he never once tried to
estimate the relevant equations and boundary conditions for that
rolling gait. (A quartic polynomial, since you ask, but there were
transcendent elements in there, as well; and the complex and
irrational. Unsolvable - as Galois proved. But that's women for
you.)"
- Michael F. Flynn, "House of Dreams", Asimov's Science Fiction,
October/November 1997
