Thought you guys'd like to know...

I got an A on my English 102 research paper that I did on Ferdinand Porsche.

I also ended up with a 4.00 in the class... that's a first.

Doug, I need to get that book back to you now...





Whoo Hoo!

Congrats! I found that writing was always easier when I was interested in the subject material. Now if you can relate the 911 development to cold war progress for a poly sci course, you'll be set.

Great job Lee.

Why not post your paper on the forum. If too large, break it up on to different posts. There are probably many things we don't know abot him.

Congrats!
What does your prof. drive?

You deserve a 4.5 in the GPA calculation if it's anything domestic.

Leland,
If the book was of some use in your research, I'm glad I was able to help. It so happens I have a buddy whose son is crazy about Porsche and I'm giving the kid some books to read up on. If you have lost my address, just e-mail me.
