Shock
Is it any wonder that the most insightful comment in a SoT column comes from an engineering student?
In an effort to capture "sex" and "virginity," engineering major Scott said, "If you've ever performed one sexual act instead of another because you were trying to protect your virginity, you're not a virgin."
On the other hand, "engineer" Rick Sterling needs to lay off the performance-enhancing drugs. He does present a good example of what's wrong with the Greenies:
Former gubernatorial and vice-presidential candidate Peter Camejo told a gathering of progressives in Oakland Saturday that recent events in New Orleans and the drop in American support for the occupation in Iraq "is a tremendous opening for the Green Party. This is a peculiar moment where we can win over people massively by explaining to them what is happening in our country and in the world."
Unfortunately, when they "explain what's happening," they sound a like like Rick Sterling does.
(As a sidenote, I noticed that in the same Planet article, greenie Aimee Allison is referred to as a "Gulf War conscientious objector." I'm not to familiar with the details of what "conscientious objector" means, so if someone could explain its role in non-draft wars, I'd be appreciative.)
Finally, Jessica Chen, illustrative engineer, knows that black market food dealers are really big, or sell to really small people. Also, healthy cafeterias are so healthy, they don't even cast shadows.
