I'd just want to clarify on my previous statements.  I know a lot of brilliant
people who have come out of college and can open up computers like nobody's
business.  When I was taking some courses at COlumbia I had tons of bright
classmates and proffessors who could open up computers and such.  I also had a
bunch who could not.  I have two friends who use AOL and Windows95, both of
whom failed their introductory CompSci courses in HS, who are going onto be
CompSci majors, mainly for the money.  People seem to misunderstand what
computer science/computer engineering is all about, and unfortunately, some
universities are changing their courses towards how these students think
CompSci is.  Now I am sure that tons of you are brilliant hackers with college
degrees, and I don't doubt that.  Im just disturbed by a growing number of
students out of uni who have degrees, but aren't serious hackers.
