Dude, get over it. I'm a CS student (a giiirl CS student) with no Calculus background and I'm surviving just fine. Hell I've gotten 4.0s in several classes. Yeah sometimes I wanted to rip my hair out but I usually could find a math major to help me; though I do admit this may have been helped by the extra X chromosome I have:P. Anyways, getting an engineering/CS/or other hard science degree is totally doable. You just have to be really interested in what you're doing and be willing to spend the extra time. Yes I have friends who are passing by without doing much in the way of work in the humanities, but they will not be enjoying the kind of lifestyle I will be after I finish my degree. I am greatly looking forward to that lifestyle.
The NPP hasn't meant anything in a long time. I was proud about last year's winner. He does some amazing things. But now? They've proven just how silly their award is once again. Dear God let the other Nobel awards not be tainted by this idiocy.
Funny thing is, I think Global Warming is a big deal. Al Gore is just not the person I want evangelizing about this problem because he's got so many things wrong and that makes people not take him seriously. We need people to take this seriously. He's not helping.
