Lance's project

Thanks to those of you who gave ideas for Lance's project. The big challenge was that they had a budget of $150 and 1 semester to complete it. And it couldn't already have a patent. If it was a brilliant idea and was that inexpensive and quick to complete, don't you think that it would already be on the market? Anyway they are designing a remote control to rotate a wall mounted flat screen TV.

This would also be a good time to mention that Lance has passed his test to be an engineer. So now if he can pass this last class and f-i-n-a-l-l-y graduate, he could be hireable as an engineer. After he turned in his paperwork for graduation, he was notified that UNR was not accepting a couple of his humanities classes from BYU-I. After threatening to transfer back to BYU-I to graduate, he finally got things worked out and it appears that he might be on-line to graduate. We won't know for sure until the diploma is in his hands. Of course I will keep you posted on this.

We are now asking for any leads for job openings for a mechanical engineer. And of course my stipulation is that it needs to be within about 400 miles of my house.

But that limitation means I can't suggest anything my way!!

Or it could be within 400 miles of my house, expecially since you've already had them closer than we have.
I guess 400 miles from you is ok as long as it's west of you and not east!
See I can compromise. :O)
