However, it has been corrected if you've read the news lately. 2) Also my posting ought not to to be taken as a rule for UCD or the world any other planet. I know engineers form NY ((where I am from) and other places. Many have the same attitude I previously described. Lastly , if you remember I said I was an undergrad. So most of the E's I know are undergrads (should be taken as default). And I will say that many do grow out of that type of attitude when they see what real-life engineering and programming is about, I suppose. Jason jygabler@ucdavis p.s. Once more asking: Did the author of the original posting have the right to slander a CS's abilities?
