TET is not a place to spam your link at.

Well, I know that meteorology requires an understanding of those two, however, and correct me if I'm wrong, I don't think meteorologists need to know the square roots of giant numbers to predict the weather. Chenistry makes sense, but I just hate it a bunch. Physics is something I love, though, so I could be a physicist.

As for the religious leaders being scholars, I already knew that, which is why St. Albert the Great is my confirmation saint. He is the patron saint of sciences. Though, he didn't work in meteorology. Just chemistry, biology, physics, and a few other things.


All physics programs, require heavy doses of chemistry and math.
The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

It's hard, but yes, as physics calculation required math, and physics also deal with molecules and such

I'll try. I'm a junior, though, so I got about a year of high school left, then it's off to IvyTech! Maybe I can save my money up and go to Valparaiso University for their weather program.

Do the mods allowed the creation of the International Thread. There is already TET, but the International thread will be like, you know, the Japanese and Philippines specific thread, but open to players of all nations, and a place to showcase cultural diversity

It is actually a kindness. The kid is young, he has time to change his mind, after college those oppertunities to get into a technical career dry up pretty quick.

There always will be work for me in Silicon Valley. Which is why I love my Web Design classes in my school. It's just every other class that I hate, but it's mostly because:
a.)teachers can't teach effectively
Or:
b.)I'm stuck in a class that refuses to pay attention which gets us behind the other classes.
It's mostly B...

For that, there's college. Network, gain some other skills (eg. publish speaking).
