Holy jumpin' jesus on a pogo stick. that's amazing.

i probably would've included more threads than this, but that's an amazing start. This thread MUST be pinned to the top of this forum.

Everyone please go PM a moderator, like scipio or roger_dooley, to ask for that.

GREAT work skraylor.

i know what you mean, i felt it was kind of sparse too. however, as i went thru most of the threads i tried to only post ones with at least 3 responses by current students and/or alum that i felt were helpful. i was kind of surprised by how few actually met this requirement....but oh well, maybe i was being too harsh in my judgments....still took me like 2 hours to wade thru all those posts tho :P
