    That is a detail I did not know.

    Now that I understand the detail of survey subjects Im ok with the current system.

    Don't change anything Mr Reo we'll work it out.

    LOL. College weenie doesn’t want to interact with real drivers so tries to use tech to avoid doing real work. I hope he gets an “F”.

    I'm going to take this just a bit further in that the method might be what is being taught by said instructor, not about trying to save the world. It might otherwise be trying to teach a new mindset about how to interpret results by example. You might think about that instead of criticizing and namecalling another member.

    Seems like I recall you running up quite a bill being one of those yourself.

    You don’t have to lick up the vomit if you just swallow it back down.
    If you’re stupid and sign user agreements without reading it’ll keep ya from having to put it in your pocket too.

    When I was in college after 2002, I was particular about my assignments.

    I remember the one I did because the teacher required it. Remedial English of all things. (Thanks SAT Scorer...) and I wrote her a paper in 5 minutes using a subject I knew well. She blew it off telling me her husband is in the same line of work and wanted me to rewrite that paper and do it properly.

    I left the class. The school admins got involved and understood that I don't mind paying for school, however when a teacher younger than I am decides my work is a waste of time, there is no point in bashing my head against that particular class. I just as soon find something else to do in life than give college a dabble at my age.

    I don't know what they told her after that but for the remaining term she tried to be sunshine. But it was obvious we were just marking time at this point. Most of the rest of the class were fantastic, but they were incredibly young 18 to 22 or so give or take a little. I don't particularly enjoy being the old man in that situation. It's too corrupting a risk.

    But the young ones were awesome believe it or not. Here in the deep south they were raised right.

    When I was in college I did real work to create real research and get a decent sample size to draw a real conclusion. This guy can’t even spell the topic of his Survey correctly. I wonder how many truck “rivers” are going to respond.

    I read the survey, seems he got that correct without misspelling anything. Autocorrect comes up with lots of things like rivers in place of drivers, heck, it turned Amash into smash in a politics thread and I knew what was meant from context.

    We frown on grammar critics out in the open, too. Just for the record.
