Ugh. Why do people think they have to pay $30-40k/semester for an education. I got my MSCS from a state school and only paid a fraction of that. If someone already has experience, and just wants a line item on a resume, why pay Harvard prices? Which leads to my next gripe. I honestly do not understand people who go to top tier schools, rack up debt, and then whine about it. I went to a state school. I worked hard, got reasonable grades and now make a comfortable living. Going to a top tier school wasn't necessary. Like all things in life, you get out what you put in, and school is no different. An Ivy League education is not required to get a great job or make lots of money. If, after you have finished school, you find yourself burdened with "crushing debt", you have nobody to blame but yourself. tl;dr - a great education can be had for cheap

I agree. Why does a belief on God have to exclude an acceptance of evolution? Or vice-versa? I believe in God, I also think that evolution is scientific fact. If anything, the wonders of science strengthen my belief and increase my awe of Gods power. There are many mysteries I do not understand, both scientifically and theologically. But I have often wondered, Why couldn't God use evolution as part of the creative process?

This is probably one of the most insightful things I have ever read on Slashdot.

I'm not kidding

My wife is a stay at home mom, by choice. There are so many women she meets that just can't belive it! She is sometimes treated as if there is something wrong with her. I mean, why would any woman choose to be at home? You have been liberated, after all!

Hello?!? Yes, there are women who think the best contribution they can make to society is to stay at home and do their best to raise good kids. Hooray for house wives!
