I graduated in 2001, and my brother in 2002. We both have RX-8's. Unfortunately, at the time I was driving a '89 chevy pickup w/ about 150,000+ miles (odometer broke, who knows) and intermittent steering.

Good luck with your degree. If you can't hack it (like me), there's always mech. technology next door.

Mechanical engineering is hard. I have Shamsundar in the spring for Thermo II. HE IS HARD. I'm lazy, yet somehow I get by. My friend recently graduated from ME-Tech at UH. Do you know D-Thai? Thanks for letting me know that there are alumni/students that own RX-8s .

I haven't gone there in over a year now. It's where I met my girlfriend. I am in a fraternity there (Delta Upsilon), she was the president of her sorority (Zeta Tau Alpha) and the rest is history. We initiated Dr. Arthur K. Smith (former president and chancellor of the U of H system and a current professor there) into the fraternity last year about this time. It's good to know people in high places.

Class of 76, only I left in 75. Made sense at the time because I was working as an EE and learned more on the job than in school.

Right? No one in any my classes has no idea what I'm talking about. It's not because I'm a bad teacher, they just don't want to learn . I park my car near the engineering lab, you know, that 50 year old airplane hanger. I won't tell you which one it is, because that's just plain silly. You'll just have to figure it out.

I know which building you are talking about. I wouldn't park too close to it though. I'd be afraid that when it falls (not if!!!) that parts of it will hit the car. Not cool.
