Oh absolutely.

I'm really considering dropping CE now after researching and thinking about it.

I'll graduate faster, with less debt, and less stress. More importantly I'll have more time to do actual work, and I'll get there faster.

Chances are a double major isn't going to give me an increase in employability or pay (difference is insignificant.) And I'd pretty much never utilize both at the same time.
However, it would give me flexibility if I wanted to do either or. I just don't see that as enough of a positive. I've been more interested in software anyway and I only went into CE because I didn't know there was a major focusing on software here.
'
Don't get me wrong here, I went to college for more reasons than just career, but if it wasn't for the fact that I'd be making money I wouldn't do it. 15000 dollars a year is way too much money to pay for a social experience. On the other side, I could have easily learned a lot of what I needed to on my own at home while still working, but college is helping me develop as a person.

Just a dumb arizona kid here to remind everyone to double check their sources! Bullshit data hurts everyone!

Indeed!  The single paper that linked (sorta) a particular vaccine to autism (kinda) was retracted after the journal that published it found out that the author was being paid to poo-poo one vaccine in order for a company to replace it with a different vaccine.  That's it.  That's the whole story.

Of course, one celeb misreads the damn thing and now we have THIS whole mess...

You do realize that the amounts of these elements in vaccines are just preservatives and are really no major increase in exposure to them than what the child would typically be exposed to anyway?  The other thing the first doctor to write a paper linking vaccines to autism rescinded the paper admitted it's COMPLETE FALSEHOOD and lost his license and credibility in his field?

As I previously stated, I wasn't refuting the science behind vaccines.

I, for one, do not allow bananas or brazil nuts in my house because of cancer.

If it's anywhere near as bad as Man of Steel I'll avoid it like the plague.

Man of steel owned I set a squat PR to that mental pump.

Why did you think I was in town?

Today was a complex swing of emotions. I'm more glad to have them than to not, but damn it'd be nice if I didn't have to deal with so much bullshit all the time.

I don't really understand the invite system.  I have it but I don't think I can pass it on once I use it.  Also it seems pretty neat but I can't really try it out because it doesn't work on apps accounts like the one my school gave me which I use a lot, opposed to my personal gmail which I don't really use.

Inbox is not all that different from Gmail mobile

Primarily has some new nomenclature and a cleaner tasks method but that's about it.  I've used it on my two primary email accounts and have come to the conclusion it's an html5 app (looks and acts identically everywhere) which isn't a bad thing there's just no real difference between computer view and mobile save for the existence of keyboard shortcuts and resolution.

Also, you request an invite by sending an e-mail to inbox@google.com (I don't know if subject or content matter).

So we're in the planning stages of a week-long motorcycle trip through the rockies for the summer. Anyone have any suggestions on what to see/where to go?

Obviously Pike's Peak in Colorado. In fact there's a ton of stuff throughout the Colorado Rockies to see.
