[QUOTE="RLR, post: 162039, member: 486"] You nailed it. I wasn't an engineer - just someone who recognized that the engineering kids held all the answers, if asked the right questions. In all sincerity, I was probably the [I]dumbest[/I] kid at GT back then and certainly would be now. And I wouldn't change that perspective for anything in the world. The way you engineering folk can look at nature or a machine, identify a problem, and use logic to solve the problem is inspiring. I myself don't have that ability. I just daydream in my head - something similar to 1 + 1 = what if the life i experience is equivalent to the life a computer game character experiences? If that were true, and the computer character somehow ventured to the realm outside of his software, into the computer, and found the trash bin, would that be like human's finding a black hole and trying to make sense of it? ... it's not a great process for GT math. or really any academic subject That said, being armed with the knowledge that people who can solve problems exist at large in the world combined with an imagination that is not bound by the physical limitations of reality is a fun way to view the world. Gotta love that MTrain life. And although I admit I basically piggyback off the intellectual capacity and achievement of you engineers, at least you can rest assured there's a growing class of bankers, lawyers, and politicians advocating for you to take a leadership role in repairing the broken, runaway aspects of our social and economic systems. At the end of the day, the MTrain is a service profession. I for one prefer to serve those with the best ideas. Lastly, just want to make clear I didn't intend to criticise you. I really did enjoy your prospective and you really did make good points. Part of my initial reaction was wrong, you helped me realize that. No better way to learn than to eliminate false beliefs. Go Jackets. Boo Heather. Long live the triple option [/QUOTE]
