Sorry for skewing poll.


Oh. So you're saying you lied.

Yup. I wonder if anybody else lied to see if you, or anyone else, would get excited about it? That was my hope.

I think most people here are honest. Many of them also stated exactly what their degrees are in. At least you didn't sink that low.

I have a high school diploma. I would like to further my education when all of my kids are in school. In the meantime, I have found that if I place a college bumper sticker on my vehicle, I feel much smarter than I really am.

Wow, I brought the HS Grad category all the way up to 4%!

I actually dropped out of HS mid Sophomore year. I moved in with my Grandparents and returned the following year, ultimately graduating.

I then started into a Doctor Degree program from the "School of Hard Knocks" in Electrical Engineering, which morphed over the years into Software Engineering. The bad thing about his school is that one never graduates (I now refer to it as a crap sandwich, of which you have to take at least one bite each day).

After 30 years of self taught electronic and software engineering I hope I'm approaching the Doctorate level.

I have had my fingers in things that have changed the world over the years, here are a few;

Evans and Sutherland - birth of computer graphics as we know it today.

Novell - evolution of client/server systems

Panasonic - birth of an upcoming evolution that will greatly affect my grandchildren, monitoring/control of home/business hardware with heavy emphasis on energy conservation.

Most of my colleges wimped out and went with actual master's degrees in Computer Science.

You could probably teach at a university, Rock, and do a great job.

When our esteemed apologists (all of whom have at least a college degree or are working on it, and most of whom have advanced degrees) count the degree from the School of Hard Knocks, you will no doubt get top billing! Well, you and a few others. But we know how they worship the degree factory system.

That brought back memories! I did a stint at Sperry Univac several life times ago...
