I love first because of the late nights, the unparralleled stress, the excitement, the emotion. Because of the close defeats, the close victories. Because of the pride, the sense of accomplishment, the feeling of embettering the world. But most of all, because of you, the other teams. - Keith Chester [more]

Actually, that would have to be a half ellipse, since the two extremes are parallel. The sides of a parabola never reach parallel.
