yes. 2individuals that, were disliked by lots of people, were controversal and not well received, but both did what they believed was right, regardless of public opinion, and history will remember them for such long-term for greater society decisions.
i was thinking more in terms of your um, rugged handsomeness, but yeah, no doubt you're both visionaries also :D

Figures he'd be a racist, being a howard supporter and all.
i was not being a racist. and supporting any individual does not automatically make the supportee a racist. You shouldn't just blatantly brand people, you branderist!

Fact is i cannot understand him properly and therefore i do not learn anything. That is why i do not bother going. What is the point in going if i am not going to learn anything? Im better off teaching the course to myself. i tried going but just got bored and ended up talking with friends which then put other people off in the lecture theatre because our talking was a distraction so left.

As you can see i put other people's needs and considerations above mine, thereby not being selfish and of all things not being racist!:uhhuh:

Also, just like other howard supporters, very easy to rile up in jest :p

Yeah i kept on making the same mistakes over and over again because I couldnt be bothered looking at what I did wrong and wanted to speed up the process. Also I too never do the tut hw no one in my tut does. Its funny when the tutor asks who has done the homework and no one puts their hand up (actually it isnt)
Well actually one week she said if you know what your doing you can go early. so i said it was me. she then said just do this question first. and i just about shit myself i had no idea what to do had never seen like a general journer/ledger before and im like i thought we just did balance sheets n revenue statements.. I somehow pretended to do it and left the class early. it was great adventure.

No course has a quota for fails, but they do have a quota for HDs and the like. Basically they'll set a mark before the end of the course which says what they think you need to get to prove you got the outcomes, and anyone below that gets an F.
