Your new addiction :(

Claimed a student of abstract topology,
"Mathematics is naught but tautology!
Yet to understand why
in particular, I
find it's often worth using homology."

A woman in liquor production
Owns a still of exquisite construction.
The alcohol boils
Through magnetic coils.
She says that it's "proof by induction."

I'm afraid the top limerick just takes the cake though: http://limerickdb.com/?286 , oh, and this one http://limerickdb.com/?383 , which rather reminds me of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UH8F0KaiipE , which was the best one I saw on Tuesday :)
