They are wrong. Ga Tech is the MIT of the south :P

Not sure why we are proud of being qualified by "of the South" though.

Alexis (of Reddit) said he was joking right after he made that comment at his presentation at Startup School. I think the joke was referring to Chris Anderson's earlier talk -- he said that Wired had acquired Reddit and it was done by a couple of guys from MIT using Rails.
