?In my perspective, science and computer science is a liberal art,
it?s
something everyone should know how to use, at least, and
harness in
their life. It?s not something that should be relegated to 5
percent of
the population over in the corner. It?s something that everybody
should
be exposed to and everyone should have mastery of to some extent,
and
that?s how we viewed computation and these computation devices.?

Harry's feeling the need to quantify his liberal arts degree from a
third rate college.

Yep, from Cracker Jack.



I'm sorry...I forgot where you and your asswipe buddy there attended
college. International Correspondence Schools?

Nope, electronics engineering. No fleabaggers graduated, they couldn't
do the math so they fell out to the liberal arts.


Math *is* one of the modern liberal arts, you ignorant asshole.

Liberal arts math? Funny, they take add-subtract and often get a C-.

Liberal arts degrees know **** about math. Engineering math is far
beyond any liberal arts degrees. In fact, first year engineering has
more advanced math than a PhD in Liberal bull****.


Harry learned practical math like making change and balancing the
checkbook. No need to go overboard over educating liberal arts students.
They just want the parchment and they are outa there to pursue God knows
what.


Yep. Liberal arts degrees are degrees in nothing really. Get a liberal
arts degree as others are beyond ones abilities.



snerk You and your buddy Drifter represent the perfect outcome of

being uneducated.
