The rising cost of education. I've yet to receive a response from my institution or others that I've considered, of why it is they keep raising their fees, tuitions, etc.., especially in a recessed economy. It seems to me to be counterprodu

Your belief is incorrect from my point of view. Sure, we want to help in some occasions- and of course there are bad apples in every bunch irrespective of your profession. But we don't do it because we want the "approval" of non-geeks, that

I think, at least what I found from that site as a pointer from this link is, that people confuse the polygraph with being a lie-detector which in truth(again based on the readings), it is not. What it is, is an agent used in an interrogat
