I am now Dr Surgo, and moved to the bay area
Though not in the same sense as Frank! I just (Oct 21) successfully defended my PhD thesis in computer engineering. I'd say "gg easy" but really the biggest part was trying to stay motivated for the four years that it took...not so much the difficulty of the work itself.
Rather than attempt to compete in the stupid academic job market, and knowing that any attempt at teaching on my part would result in a generation of terribly educated students, I've joined a megacorp (it's a company that you probably use daily and rhymes with "bugle"). I'm left wondering why I didn't do this years ago instead of getting a PhD. So take that as a lesson, kids!
Anyway, yeah, moved to the Bay area, if anyone else still lives here we should totally hang out and stuff.

Congratulations, Surgo! I've still gotta start my PhD....
Everything I learned about DnD, I learned from Frank Trollman.

Chamomile wrote: See, it's because K's belief in leaving generation of individual monsters to GMs makes him Chaotic, whereas Frank's belief in the easier usability of monsters pre-generated by game designers makes him Lawful, and clearly these philosophies are so irreconcilable as to be best represented as fundamentally opposed metaphysical forces.

Congrats, Surgo!

Just a heads up... Your post is pregnant... When you miss that many periods it's just a given.

Welcome! I recommend Acme bread very highly. If I knew exactly where you are I could possibly give more advice.
