"...Doesn't Necessarily Mean You're Smart." 

Orientation started yesterday, and classes start Friday. I'm actually kinda stoaked. Hopefully this turns out to be as cool as it sounds.

Speaking of school, Lakehead University in Canada is making fun of dubya and his alma mater, Yale, with a new publicity campaign. Most surprising is that it seems to be the current students complaining. Seriously guys - you want to attract *quality* folks that live "down south"? This will help.

And, in news that may have actual historical significance, North American researchers claim to have developed a treatment which blocks the receptor where the anthrax toxin acts, thus protecting from it. If successful, the approach could hold much promise for other diseases and toxins as well. Cool!
