Hi. I've finally found time to reply like you keep telling me to do. I really like your astronomy pix and messages. By reading your posts, you seem to know not only about astronomy, but other sciences as well. A lot more than I know. I have a normal size chemistry text and a HUGE biology text: It makes "WAR AND PEACE" look like "PAT THE BUNNY". I'm not much of a reader, especially books like that, but I should try. I can't wing it, like I could in English class last year. I'm doing poorly at trig, but I must get at least a C in it to take physics. Ps. This is NOT an ultra-left wing university like some, but a few professors are lefties.

Hi graycamel. Glad you dropped by. Petunia hasn't been here since FR came back online. She may be working. Please feel welcome to stay around. Sounds like you are taking some heavy duty courses there. I never had a course in Trig., but I did take Physics and made an A. But it will be a lot easier if you do take the Trig. As for reading, it takes practice. You can develop a love for reading by reading things that interest you. And, when you are reading something "heavy" keep reminding yourself that when you get through it you will know something that 80% of your friends don't know. Just think how inpressive you will be when you converse with others (g). That's advice from a grandma who loves to read.

Enjoyed your post. Nice to hear from the college set. I must tell you that there are liberal professors in most universities unless you attend an ultra-conservative school and even then......

Congratulations brother and welcome to Freerepublic! Sure is good to hear from you!

I trust that school is going fairly well. Sounds like the workload isn't getting any easier. How about coming up here for Thanksgiving weekend? I have that 4-day weekend off.

Yeah, I love the physical sciences. Astronomy most of all.
