Go Green!

Go Green indeed!

Amazingly enough, I programmed on the same CDC 6500 at MSU in the '70s. By the time I got there, the school had lost its EE credentials, and I was torn between a music degree at MSU and EE somewhere else.

Technically, I guess I'm still deciding.

So as not to be too OT, I've taken the AED training course, and it's really simple. Doing it when there's a guy (or gal) on the floor in front of you is probably tougher.

Go Big Blue!

Sorry ... I work at Penn State and just had to get that in. My (amazing) daughter is a molecular geneticist who's considering that other Michigan school for her Doctorate. I'm not sure my genes need saved that badly (though obviously in this case, she is my creation).
