This.

Is.

Awesome.

A world class education, for free.  You couldn't hope for anything better than this.  Anything MIT does, you can download course material and learn until your heart is content.  Anything from Aeronautics to Writing.

Damn you Cain. I don't have time to read all this, do other stuff in my life and sleep too. DAMN YUO!

Potheads?  Meh.  All they do is sit on the couch, eating Cheetohs.

This is completely fucking awesome, I wish I could get a living stipend so I could just sit here and read all day.

It's at times like these, when such wonderful material is right before me, that I wish I had highspeed instead of dail-up.

Number one reason to go to University is for incredible download speeds.  I should have bought an extra hard drive when I was studying.
