She is studying robotics and she has heard about Ada from me. Ada fascinated her. The "High Com" of EngSoc made an arrangement for a seminar which contained several talks. The time was in late evening starting from 8pm. Firstly, they did not even consult before making the arrangement. Secondly, they arranged the seminar out of normal office hour. It was very rude for these "High Com" (students) taking matters into their own hands expecting everyone to live by MMU's culture. MMU students have classes even exams at night! So, I rejected them. They proposed second date and that even worst! After my first rejection, no one was trying to communicate with me to discuss about the date and time. They simply re-rescheduled to another day at the same time. I rejected them again and I never heard from them. Then I heard some comments from the High Com and some lecturers who were involved. One lecturer knew about this and he could not even bother to email me. They were really inconsiderate and had no courtesy at all towards invited guests. They expect everybody to live by their culture and time domain. Really arrogant and silly bunch of university students (and lecturers).

I broke their sacred belief of "qi". And in karate, I broke their belief in training and the honor of their lineage. That's one of the reasons I chose "Revelations" because I revealed the truth and lies in their practice. Just recently, I learned that a group of people (students including a couple of lecturers) from EngSoc (Engineering Society) of MMU regards me as a stubborn moron and difficult to work with.

Look who's here talking? I like "Oxymoronic concoction". Some readers regard me as a moron. I think they will agree with the word Oxymoronic having the sound of "moron" in it. :) Well, well, well.

Combining both makes it a little too philosophical and mathematical. Sounds confusing, contradicting... a paradox? Both are very nice titles.
