Comment Re:Finally (Score 3, Insightful) 891

My wife works 20 miles away from our home and the only viable route to her workplace is via a freeway. I work 7 miles from our home and while I could ride a bicycle there are two things that prevent it: (1) it's unbearably hot an muggy during the summer months, and (2) even my local roads which don't require me to use the freeway are extremely dangerous -- I've never before lived in a place with such angry drivers. I couldn't agree with you more that finding alternative ways to encourage the populace to conserve is a good thing, but a tax of this nature just punishes those of us who do not have alternatives.

Comment I'm 35 and youngest in my department (Score 2, Informative) 918

I'm working for a leading worldwide business software provider in their SaaS division. I'm 35. I'm the youngest person on the team. While I have no doubt that ageism exists in IT, I'm very encouraged that the folks I work with are dedicated geeks of varying ages. This is also the best job I've ever had.

Go for the degree and keep a positive attitude.
