There's a lot to be said for informal education....
When you really need to learn something or get something fixed....and don't want to sift through the different pages a search engine gives you....or better yet, are ready to sift through...but want immediate answers to specific questions....there's nothing in my experience that beats informal learning.....
And by informal learning here...I mean...admitting you don't know something.... picking the brains of your lab mates.....and making sure you understand what they're saying.....not just saying uhuh...uhuh....and ending up partially educated...
what's that saying again? a little knowledge/education is harmful....come to think of it....a lot of knowledge might be harmful too....
hmmm.....
ok...I really wanted to say...kudos to Eddy for taking time out of his non-available free time....to add to my informal education.....
And of course....kudos to Hilary.....for bootstrapping me.....and contributing immensely to my informal education....
why is this starting to sound like a speech from an award show?
