Rats, all I have is the finite improbability device. I haven't figured out how improbable it is to make an infinite one. It's great for party tricks though.


Sheesh! Next thing you'll be telling me is that perpetual motion machines can't possibly work. Don't spoil all my delusions!


They don't work.

BUT,

I can get you a special deal on a Heisenberg Compensator. Cheap.

Course 2. I almost completed course 6-1 as well (3 classes short when I burned out from that insane double degree program)

Course 22 here (That's Nuclear for non-MIT'ers).

You did MechE and Elecrical?? I'm impressed. All I got was a masters in NucE. Not smart enough for anything else there...

PS Were they calling building 6 the "God Building" back then?

Got accepted, toured the campus, was talking to councilors... wavering between course 5 or 10. Then UT offered a better ride and I decided to go with Anthropology. Now I am hoping to go back to school and study cosmology. lol

I may need to borrow the sonic screwdriver to tune my flux capacitor... so don't lose it.
