I didn't see your last AMA, so this is probably a repeated question.

Simply, why?

What motivation do you have for allowing students the easy way out, to give them incentive to not learn critical skills in constructing their own theses? Are you content with the knowledge that teachers could be passing idiots?

What are the hypothesized long-term side-affects? My concern over such contraceptions is male sterility or long-term male infertility. We seem to have already been having issues in that area.

But how do they feel about the moral implications of it? A theif probably also has the same motivations.

What's your favorite state, and what do you like most about it?

Here's one that I was actually wondering the other day: I work downtown, and travel down the main artery to get there. As I approach downtown the blocks are smaller and each on has a signal. I noticed the other day that the signals don't appear to be in sequence with one another. They don't allow "bunches" of vehicles to go down the road smoothly. The light at which you are stopped will turn green while the one just beyond that will be cycling through the yellow. This causes traffic to stop at each light. Occasionally the light beyond will turn green while you're still stopped at the red. So my question is do you program the lights down main arteries in sequence or do they each run independently of one another depending on traffic? I though that at rush hour aignals were aupposed to "prefer" traffic running down the busier main arterial streets.
