http://scn.infopop.net/0/OpenTopic?a=tp ... 8300918245On Friday, 13th I defended my Dr.-Ing. thesis (about equivalent to Ph.D.). Finally.
I have to wait a bit until I get my diploma, but then you all have to call me "Herr Doktor Schneider".
Just kidding (about the latter part)!!!
I hope that, as far as my job allows, I will have more time for Trek, for my site and for the message board than in the previous few weeks.
...
The thesis is about the development of image sensors with wide dynamic range and high resolution.
Is there anyone who knows something about the German system of education?
What is a "Dr.-Ing."? Doctor of Engineering?
BTW check out this thread at EAS.
It would appear that they have a rather serious fundie infestation there. One of the greatest things about Trek has always been the way it treats religions (I just love McCoy's line in STII about Genesis being a myth), ST's attitude was undoubtedly influenced by the fact that Roddenberry was an "active" atheist and these dumb-fundie-trekkie-fucks are mocking him because of it.
AAAAAAARGHHHHHHH!!!! Check this out. There are creationist at EAS, even as moderators it woud appear.
Those people are vile...there pissing all over Roddenberry's legacy.
