4/19 I got my acceptances to MIT today, also I got into CMU and stanford.
Stanford is offering me only $25k, while MIT is offering $30k. Do
people think it's worth staying in CA at a cost of $5k?
\_ *yawn* my package from MIT included a penthouse apartment and
severeal whores. of course i turned them down to make 280k/yr
as a sysadmin for a cluster fof four macintoshes.
as a sysadmin for a cluster of four macintoshes in tahiti.
\_ I turned down that job. Too much work for too little pay.
\_ Bullshit, no grad schools offer much over $22k for Fall 2002. And
none are announcing Fall 2012 admissions yet.
\_ Stanford PhD candidates were invited to the campus on March. They
even had dinner across Gates Hall. Their SIR was due on April 15th.
The # of applications nearly trippled this year. How do I know all
this? Because I took an SITN class and the professor told me so.
She's part of the admission committee. Boy, you are a big fuckin'
liar.
\_ You only got $30k? You were probably someone's last choice or
something after a bus load of others got killed in a fluke typhoon
or something. You might as well give it up and go to Hayward
because you only got a mercy 'filler' admit anyway.
\_ is someone bitter?
\_ Nope. Perhaps it was too subtle for you.
\_ perhaps the statement was too lame.
\_ No. You're just dumb. Sorry, not my fault.
\_ no. dumb was the "only $30k" statement. |

4/20 What should I do with the Tulip bulbs? Leave it in the soil or
dig them up for next year? If so, what is the appropriate way to
store them?
\_ I believe you are supposed to dig them up and replant them in
the fall -jules.
\_ search the motd archive for "tulip".
\_ Hold them until the tulip craze strikes again. |

4/20 Does anyone know how to rewrite the From address in nmh? I want
my mail to say it came from user@cal.berkeley.edu rather than
user@soda.berkeley.edu or user@mydomain.com. I've copied the
components files into ~/Mail and added a Reply-to header, but
some mail clients don't seem to respect that so I want to change
the From header itself.
\_ You sure they're seeing the From: header or the Reply-to: or
some form of Sent: header? You can kill the Reply/Send header
in the config file. To change the From: for real, use the source,
Luke, or just do it by hand each time when you "comp"ose an email. |
