λ · μ = lk(∂λ, ∂μ) + ∑ handles intersections
Watching Lisa Piccirillo own the blackboard like this; intersection forms on homology modules, handle cancellations in 4-manifolds; hits different. The precision, the chalk dust, the way she just sees the topology.
This is pure 4D magic: where smooth vs topological distinctions go wild, and one clever trace or form can kill a 50-year knot problem.
Her Conway knot proof lives here; showing it's not smoothly slice, unlocking exotic phenomena that change how we understand spacetime surgery and manifold classification.

I am 90. And I say the best investment advice is "think long-term and in decades." Most don't take this advice seriously may be because of my age.
