Good point, Greg.

Also, remember that some of us balance in a full-time job with the schooling. Fortunately for me, WPI's classes ended a week after I had to leave, so, wrapping stuff up early wasn't a huge deal. Of course, I had to pull 2 back-to-back all nighters and was up 55 hours to make this happen, but, you gotta do what you gotta do.
