macdude, I find your final line to have a fair bite to it. :( Personally, I prefer the limb donation payment plan. Mr. Trinity, bravo for insulting a commanding officer! Mr. Excalibur, as much as you may rise above the skill of the average contestant of American Idol, it strikes me that perhaps Mr. Salmon was being facetious in suggesting it in the first place. Of course, I maintain knowing nothing. :confused: And as always, Mr. Thuryl's puns are priceless. (Fortunately.) Posts: 134 | Registered: Sunday, February 3 2008 08:00 |

I just realised that despite all my posts in this topic, I haven't yet said what I'm doing. I'm in the middle of a Master of Arts (Science, Communication and Society), which is about as confusing as it sounds. I'm also doing an internship copy-editing articles for a small literary/political journal based out of a local university. This is pretty much my dream job, as it allows me to read a bunch of interesting stuff whilst engaging in unfettered pedantry. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure!

My degree in, uh, HEPAC *) technology will be complete this spring. My actual studies ended two weeks ago; now I'm on my apprenticing period. I'll avoid further education for at least until I'm out of the army.

I got the reference! What I major in depends on what college I get into. I found a college that would accept me a year early(I'm interviewing there this weekend) and I would probably major in French or Linguistics there. Either after that or if I don't get in there, I plan to major in Music Performance on my cello. -------------------- Do not underestimate the power of the mechanical pencil. Join the Dark side.

I believe, Mr. Ratt, that there is something particularly meaning about basing one's own arrogance off of another's cheap puns. Or perhaps I should be more explicit as to whom I'm referencing. :eek: Posts: 134 | Registered: Sunday, February 3 2008 08:00 |

quote:I letting my PhD gather dust. I did some work in micro-cavity enhancement of non-linear light and became convinced that classical theory was missing something. It took me years to figure out I could use semi-classical theory instead of full quantum mechanical to solve the problem and never got around to doing the calculations. Too much thought into how to find a simple way to show that terms were zero without major calculations. This probably stems from my frustrations at writing computer code for other people's problems instead of my own. I got listed in some papers in polarized light scattering for computer support. I'm still mad that I got called a thoeretician for that when I'm an experimentalist. Posts: 4643 | Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00 |
