^ and ^^ 2 semesters ago they sent out notices how it was going to be very slow during finals week. Professor in our grad school class still had his 4 hr timed exam on it, it took 11 minutes to upload (just a plain word doc), one more minute and we would have been fucked.

You hold way too high an opinion of people if you think this is in any way unusual. Most people are fucking stupid, try to remember that.

4/15/2008 10:53:03 PM
