I am trying to find a story that I read as a teenager in the 80s about a girl who lives on the Moon and is running a company which requires her to do a lot of Maths with her boyfriend (who calls her "decimal point"). Also, there is a hangar on the Moon which you can go to, rent some wings, and fly like a bird. The girl hates her one trip to earth because she weighs a tonne and there are lots of bugs, which she is not used to. As a result, she spends most of her time sitting in the bath and is very glad to get back to the Moon. I think the author was a woman and have tried searching on-line, but cannot find this story again. Please help.
In time Keeps on Slippin' , Farnsworth creates a basketball team which he matures by abusing Chronitons. This leads to time skipping forward by random, but ever increasing amounts. How much time was skipped in this way? Answer Unfortunately, I don't think a good estimate can be made for this, for two reasons: Many of the time skips move forward by an indeterminate amount of time. At one point, the Professor mentions localized regions of space skipping forward much more than others. We then see two young boys on the street below complaining about having to pay social security, only to suddenly become senior citizens and start complaining about wanting their money. Thus, each individual could have experienced a different amount of time skippage.
