You've just given me a name for the behavior of about 20% of my students.

Learned helplessness Lack of motivation and failure to act after exposure to unpleasant events or stimuli over which the individual has no control (e.g., noise, crowding)[1]. Individuals learn that they cannot control their environment and this may lead them to fail to make use of control options that are available.

APA has unaccountably left out maniacal math profs but I imagine that they will be included in the second edition. The scrbook problem seems to have cured itself when I ran a reconfiguration even before I updated everything in MiKTeX. When I run a latex configuration it is there. Self-curing problems are the best kind. Cheer, /Paul __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
