    [quote user="Daniel"] They deserve the award for promoters and marketers of the recent past. They've managed to convince millions of kids and their parents, whom obviously lack understanding of the law of supply & demand, that going to college is worth the kids' time and their parents' money.

  • Re: Starter Books

    [quote user="Blueline976"] So with Christmas coming up soon, I am thinking about getting some hard copies of books.
