Not me.

These silly surveys and requests for input on class papers, even if a
real class project, are utterly useless anyway. I used it as a way to
clarify some of my own thinking.

Often taunted by trout. Almost entirely harmless.
Really.

Gather information without the Internet???? How in the world are you
supposed to do that?!

Actually he does have an .edu email address, as he has emailed me.
I also have a son in college, so I felt I could take a little of my time to
help a student write a paper. By the questions he was asking there didn't
seem to be a threat, and as it turned out he's a pretty good kid and
interested in fly-fishing.

Last month, I was helping out another high school student with his casting.
It was fun for me to watch his eagerness to learn.
fwiw,

Well, there could be part of the paper on watershed usage, its impact
on the river/economy. My daughter just got second place in a statewide
competition for college level journalists. They were given a general
topic and two hours, no phone nor Internet usage allowed. You gather
as much info as possible and go.
Hell, I did a marketing paper on a brick (the waste product fly ash was
used instead of cement). One of my side notes was that the brick
weighed less and so could reduce repetative stress injuries in masons
(though not shriners in clown cars).
Mayhaps, if we ask real nice, she'll post the paper here.

Now Frank, you didn't write that paper for her?

Frank: "No Tom, If I wrote it she would have got 1st place!"

there's no excuse for such an intrusion. They used to be common.

I've assumed she was cleverly touting the Logan River, and that the joke's
on ROFF. :-)


Cutthroat trout are native to the Logan.

Uh, yeah, it's worried me sick since I first saw the highly personal
questions...hopefully, you've alerted the FBI and the NSA...

HTH,

....and nefarious activity like this should make the reasons for an even
stronger Patriot Act apparent to all...

Hell, she couldn't even use a car. That's brutal (and yes, I would
have gotten first place).

Congratulations Frank,
and remind your daughter all she needs is one best seller and she's set for
life.

I'm hoping she does something on the scale of Harry Potter. ChaCHING!
Will pass along the good words.
