Pre-Powerpoint... I had a Advanced Calc (411) course [theory of calc in N dimensions, starting from set theory]. The course's emphasis was on rigorous proof, and the prof's idea of a lecture was to: <VOICE type="strong-hungarian-accent">read from the book in a monotone</VOICE>
On the other hand, I had several smaller classes where the give-and-take was excellent between the students and the instructor. Even David Huffman himself, while arrogant, fostered good interaction in class.
All transit in the greater LA areas is based on a faulty assumption, namely that everyone wants to go downtown. Those who want to go from, say, the Valley to the Westside, or vice-versa (and there are a lot of them), or maybe out to Ventura County, etc., are screwed.
And if the supreme court comes down on them, we'll all be humped for the next fifty years and stuck listening to how the ruling is precedent for every other judicial quack looking for a reason to go after people who don't love the heavy-handed arms of the studios and labels. Given Obama's recent appointees from the RIAA, Isohunt's embroilment in another baseless case, and the continued (read:unchecked) malicious actions of the dogs of the RIAA/CRIA/MPAA/et al, my optimism might be described as waning at best.
You are aware that this is a ruling of a Swedish court, and not a US court? Obama has absolutely nothing to do with this.
Despite all this, if the Cubs ever make it to the series, I want them to win. They really need it.
Are you insane? One of the two signs of the Apocalypse has already happened (twice -- the BoSox winning). If the Cubs win, then the end of the world is at hand!
Now that I think of it, I guess that means I have to predict the Cubs winning the Series in 2012. You heard it here first, folks!
No. What I'm talking about is Yanks fans come into your stadium and cheer the Yankees. They're not drunk and obnoxious, and if the Yanks win, they're like, "We won. Deal with it".
Red Sox fans come into your stadium and cheer the Sox. They're drunk and obnoxious, and if the Sox win, they're like, "We won! Why aren't you happy for us?"
Had a lithium battery vent on me. I was in the lab, prepping a system for a trip the next day. The battery vented, and we had to evacuate the lab. I had to prep the system remotely (this was *NOT* a PC with a remotable display).

Don't you mean Art Buchwald and "Coming to America"?
Holy frack. You actually admit to knowing about that movie? Are Y(ah)oo Serious?

I'd really like to mod the RIAA as redundant. Also Overrated, Troll, and Flamebait.
Beige alert! You must turn in your geek card for not recognizing the ObFuturama when you see it.

You're right. The FSM isn't going to ask Hawking anything! He'll just touch Hawking with His Noodly Appendage!

Though it might slip up to 18 months for "technical reasons".
Mass transit working in LA? Ha!

What have you got against whelks?
They've already got it, they just don't want to spend it.
No, because the stuff you bought at Costco will still work, even if your membership is canceled.

No, Yankee fans are merely cocky and arrogant. You're looking for Red Sox fans.

That's because you followed the Gourd instead of the Shoe!

That's the definition of an "honest politician". Of course, being from the Chicago political machine, he probably learned that early in his career.
I'm sorry, I don't quite get it. Can you give me a car analogy instead?

No, Garbo wouldn't have been throwing herself at him... she vanted [sic] to be alone.
Well, that's the problem. NASA does rocket science, not grammar!
