There is a string theory somewhere..but an excellant point! In fact I will be sure to bring that up in class! I would love to see my teacher try to explain that one while frantically referring to his notes.
Thanks for the welcome..there's alot of good topics to keep me from my studies..two more weeks and FREEDOM!!!
