"Sparked Quite a Stir"

Sparked quite a Stir

I have been editing the web page material for NUDT and generally it is very boring reading -with really nerdy stuff – so much that I am sure I have scratched several gouges into my head – trying to figure it out. I don’t get to chuckle often – but this one sentence finally got me laughing hysterically – sarcastically of course…

At the end of one of the paragraphs this was written … "The faculty has published 86 papers including 12 SCI and EI-indexed ones, and six textbooks and monographs, among which Network Algorithm and Complexity Theory, Non-linear Optimization, Combinational Graph Theory and On Counter-Measures have sparked quite a stir in China.”

Well are you ready to go out and buy a copy? Should we recommend it for our next book club? I wonder if they have it an audio version of it? Maybe a movie or a TV series……. I swear this is exactly how they wrote it – This whole place is filled with REAL “Big Bang Theory” people. They may throw me out of here when they discover Martha sends me envelopes filled with “Star” magazines.
