- Have things gotten so bad at Syracuse that they've stopped teaching
- students how to do basic research? I mean, c'mon Ken, over the past
- couple of months you've posted about a half-dozen articles asking us
- to do your groundwork for you in various areas. And until now, I've
- been able to keep from responding...

- Get off your butt and get over to Link Hall; there's bound to be someone
- over there with some extra databooks, and the time to show you the inside
- of one. Or spend some time in Bird Library; I hear they keep books in there.
- Wouldn't it be sad if, when someone asked you to explain the various
- features of your micromouse, you could only reply "Uh, I don't know...
- people on the net designed it for me". What are you going to do when
- you're faced with real-world problems?!
