FYI, I was in the first group because my first job had pay cuts within 2 weeks, and then I discovered I basically spent minimal time at home anyway, so why pay more for it. Let me buy when I wanted to move out.

Oddly enough, neither of my classes were cancelled, despite being only a little over 2 hours down 95 from NYC.

Writing readable perl is easy, just code it like it's LISP.

Granted, he was working with it in AI/bioinformatics.
