Fun stuff.

Oh, and btw post number 5000!!!
Ouch. Our stuff was more along the lines of the benefits & drawbacks of alternative forms of electricity production, and researching VOIP (Skype was very new at the time). Still BS reports & papers, but at least we usually learned something interesting when we wrote them. And they were never very long, usually no more than 5 pages.

It was kinda funny, everyone in the class ended up doing basically the same report for everything because we all used HowStuffWorks.com (few of us trusted Wikipedia back then) as our primary resource, then filled out our bibliography with a few random results from google. By the end of the semester, HSW.com was 'forbidden' and we had to do a bit more work.
