R is fun; haven't used it too much, but my 311 TA got me interested in it.

You guys know I never did figure out who my neigbor is? He finally bought blinds, though. :p

Maybe you should knock on his/her door and introduce yourself like this:
"Hi, my name is Entity. Would you like to nef?"

Nah, he'd probably be from DC or GH and run away screaming. Us OT'ers can be scary folk, or so I've heard.

Werner Steuzle. I had him last Autumn. The only thing I remember was his habit of saying "right" after everything. If he didn't say it, he'd at least mouth it.

I remember my statistics teacher saying how much he disliked these programs, because he would always see reporters and such doing their own statistics and not knowing how to accurately interpret the results.
