Steve, yeah, I'm an ass, but if you want good math then you've gotta deal with it! Yes, I was reffering to neat hand writing, as opposed to the chicken scratch stuff I see from most people. I have seen other companies quotes/bids that are unreadable. My industry is hilarious.

I did construction for years before I went back to get my engineering degree. Amazing the guys that can't figure the square footage of a square room.

What is it they say, 20 years ago American kids were near the best in the world at math, now they're not in the top 20? Scary world, hard to innovate and stay ahead when the majority of engineers and scientists are Indian, Chinese, Japanese, etc. Nobody that goes to college wants a "hard" degree, I can't count the people I know that majored in business management. Now they're working at Target for $25k a year, that education sure is paying off.
