Thanks, Fred! Many of my students are looking for nursing, business management, and yes-- tech jobs. I'll check it out.— July 31, 2009 1:41 p.m.
A Static Charge
PistolPete: "Gay Iraqis will nuclear bombs!!!!" To whom did they "will" them, Pete? It is awfully ironic that someone who displays such regard for human life: “What a f--kin' kunt! If I was your ex-BF,you'd be buried in the desert for some s--t like that. Bank on that sweetie.” …has any feeling at all for the lives lost on 9/11.— July 31, 2009 1:38 p.m.
You Must Keep Reading
You're welcome, Mr. Brizz--my pleasure. Maybe you can help me out. I'm researching a project on the writings of Robert Smithson, the 70s earthworks artist, and need to look into his background with sci-fi. Have read some Eric Temple Bell, but looking for any sci-fi (anything before 1973) treating the concept of crystals and "crystalization." Any recommendations?— July 31, 2009 1:18 p.m.

I'm out of the survey, as I do not drive, Pete.— July 31, 2009 1:14 p.m.

Oops, meant "doctrinal." You get the picture.— July 31, 2009 1:02 a.m.

"You are making the mistake of believing you can "treat" people into being what they're not." rickeysays, I don't believe that irishwriter is proposing we attempt to change personality or the essence of a person, so much as providing more extensive treatment for the behavioral and psychological issues underlying substance abuse and attendant antisocial actions. Perhaps some people cannot change, especially those severely afflicted with personality disorders or mental illness, but the vast majority of people are very responsive to environment and social influence--the problem is actually how well, how insidiously social influence works--you won't admit to be a product of it yourself--all is nature, nature, nature. Time and again, rickeysays, you apply a fatalist dotrinal view of the human animal, and ignore the role of the social, despite all of the evidence around you, and the fact that it very much makes you look as misled as a PistolPete. Why? It can't all lead back to your worries over what taxpayers might be talked into paying for, if we accept that education and treatment work for social betterment...— July 31, 2009 1 a.m.

Re: post #11: Mr. Bauder, I am always looking for sites to recommend to job-searching students, and certainly do not want to recommend to them a phishing scam! Do you mind relating your specific source for this info on Career Builder and other such phony sites?— July 31, 2009 12:04 a.m.

Dracula: Pages from a Virgin's Diary
I haven't seen this one yet, but Guy Maddin's more recent hilarious psycho-mockumentary 'My Winnipeg' needs reviewing. From the implacable fact of the deathly snowy cold, to a Mennonite-laced repression of sexuality and desire, and a dreamlike, ambiguous coast through historical events that touch the city in odd and amusing provincial ways--this film is mandatory, especially for former denizens of this city (incl. my forebears). Maddin knows his Freud, AND has a sense of humor informed enough to do justice to a blend of autobiography and psychoanalytic theory.— July 30, 2009 2:25 p.m.
