True, but you cheated by having a better brain than the run of the mill Stockholm Syndrome educational victims: <i would not consider 60 months partying on merit while nailing down degrees which would normally take much longer a waste of time> Not many people can cruise through like that. Mostly they are more like sausages on a production line. Like a stock market or housing bubble, one can only know AFTER the "education" whether it was education or a con job to feed the education industry. Also, it's a one-way real-time experiment so even in retrospect it's hard to know whether it was worthwhile or not. I consider nearly all my time there a waste of time, but I have to admit that I did learn about maths which enabled me to come up with the CDMA idea and to recognize the value in QCOM when I stumbled upon it. But maybe I'd have done something better if not wasting time with moments of inertia and fooling around with the Fanning friction factor. I was good at moments of inertia [still am come to think of it]. Mqurice
