When you go out on a plane, the worst thing for everyone should be to meet a hijacker. However, an Italian economics professor, Quedo Menzio, proved it to us with his own experience. In fact, the worse thing is to be treated as a terrorist. He was mistaken for a terrorist simply because he was working on a set of calculus equations on the plane, which eventually delayed the flight. It seems that the dark discipline of calculus really can't be learned

According to the Guardian, guido Menzio, an Italian economics professor, was mistaken for a terrorist for calculating a set of calculus equations on the plane, which eventually delayed the flight. The flight is operated by Air Wisconsin, a regional partner of American Airlines.
On a flight from Philadelphia to Syracuse on May 5, a woman in her 30s reportedly told the crew she was unwell. The woman stepped off the plane and said the real reason she wanted to turn around was that she was "very worried" about Menzio's move. She said that Menzio looked a bit like a terrorist in the Middle East, and that he was still writing mysterious symbols, and that he might be plotting a hijacking like 9/11...

Menzio was then taken off the plane and questioned by a "man in black who appeared to be from the FBI," which eventually led to the 41-minute flight taking off after a delay of about 2 hours. The woman was arranged to take a later flight. The "suspected Middle Eastern terrorist" with brown skin and curly black hair under investigation was Guido Menzio, an assistant professor of economics at Penn. He boarded a flight from Philadelphia to Syracuse on Thursday (May 5) and planned to make a transfer to Ontario, Canada, to give a speech.
Menzio received his Ph.D. from Northwestern University and has held faculty positions at Penn since 2005. In 2015, he also won the prestigious "Carlo Alberto" award, becoming the best Italian economist under the age of 40. He was on the plane preparing materials for a lecture to students at a Canadian university, calculating an equation on scratch paper. The pilot who learned the truth during the investigation looked embarrassed. Menzio later posted on Facebook about the experience, saying it was "unbelievable" and laughing.
"It's a little bit hilarious and a little bit worrying. This lady just looked at me, looked at a bunch of equations I had written and decided I was going to do something bad. Because of this, the entire flight is delayed. He wrote. He told The Associated Press that flight crews should conduct additional checks before deciding to delay departures. "Not gathering more information after receiving a report of 'suspicious action' creates a lot of problems, especially when xenophobia is on the rise," he said. However, Menzio also said that he may be a little different in appearance, so he is often mistaken, and once he was mistaken for John Lennon's son, Sean Lennon, and was asked for an autograph...
Yes, calculus is terrorism. Anyway, I didn't pass much in college.

Cough, the impression of college teachers are bloated? Come and go, reply to [fresh meat], the homepage Jun secretly tells you that the math teacher at UCL is actually an Italian male model, which makes people listen to the lesson well...
In other words, in order to learn mathematics well, the people of the corrupt country also introduced the exercises of the Heavenly Dynasty.... Reply [Math Questions] Homepage Jun takes you to see the reactions of the little farts in the corrupt country
