I am planning on buying an HTC phone because it is good hardware with FOSS on it.

Because anyone could miss Alaska, all tucked away down there.

Indeed. I find it funny that people think of Michigan as small (even myself sometimes, and I'm from there!), but it takes 12 hours to drive from end to end, and, barring Alaska, has the most shoreline of any state.

I would say he has kept this in mind: he is making (boatloads of) money teaching people how to magically mathify finance. This is infinitely less risky than investing.

Analogously: if you want to make money at a casino, get a job as a dealer.

Citation please? I know several people with teaching degrees in Michigan who would be very strong teachers, and stay in the state waiting for a current teacher to retire or die. This is in spite of the crappy salaries that await them.

There are people who want to teach because they understand the importance and nobility of it. Unfortunately, because the systems are so bloated with bad teachers (when even mediocrity should be considered unacceptable), many of these would-be excellent educators can't find a job.

This would be a lot more useful if the natural choice for counting to zero on one hand wasn't reserved for 10.

Are you implying that they never sing past the first line of their national anthem?
