Grades and stock options.

From Charles Simonyi's interview on intentional programming. http://www.edge.org/digerati/simonyi/simonyi_p3.html http://www.edge.org/digerati/simonyi/simonyi_p3.html the Dean talked to me and said, well, Mr. Simonyi, you were doing so well and are now doing so poorly; what's the reason? Can we help you? You can share anything with us, tell us what it is. Is it drugs, is it grass, acid, or mescaline? I smiled at him and said, I think it's a stock option. He said, well in that case we can't help you.
