In case you are thinking of putting this on your resume, my advice is--don't.
Unless of course you are looking for a job at the Institute for
Policy Studies, the Brookings Institution, or the Democrat Party.
Some personnel people might take a dim view of some grad student eating
tax dollars and then helping bite the hand that fed him/her.

It won't do any good to flame me, as I am only on the net for the holidays
and will not be back until Feb 15 at the earliest, by which time your
flame will have expired from this system.
