Stranger In A Strange Land by Robert Heinlein

Hey, at least somebody remembered an alumni. I'm surprised Starship Troopers wasn't selected as well.

Assistant Professor Paul Miller, Naval Architecture, Ocean, and Marine Engineering Department:

To Engineer is Human, by Henry Petroski.

Very good book. A keeper in my personal collection.

The Nimitz Museum in Fredricksberg? Been there a few times! I live in Central TX, North of Liberalville Austin in Williamson County. Very Cool.

Yes, and it was great.

P.S. I live in "Liberalville".
