    Congrats, Evan!

    I'm also currently "in school", and while it is occasionally tough, I'm convinced that any continuing education is always worth the time and effort! :thumb:

    No way!!! Wild horses couldn't get me to be a moderator here. For one thing, I have little interest in the car anymore, since buying my electric Zap Xebra four years ago. And for another, I'd be a lousy mod. I'd ban so many people Danny would lose too much ad revenue.

    I hated school when I was young. Then when I was in my middle 40's I decided I wanted to learn Spanish and I enrolled in the university. No pressure from parents, and grades meant absolutely nothing. I just wanted to learn and didn't care what grades I got. It was hard work, and it was fun.

    I love school, I love learning from people who know more than I do. But I'm not much for sitting in class rooms either. fortunately this program has only about 9 days of on-campus activity per semester, the rest is online and self-reading/learning stuff.

    I know I'm jumping in late, but I wanted to publicly wish Evan well on his new adventure and thank him for everything he's done for PriusChat. Evan has been a great source of advice and friendship over the last 8 years. If I were to count the top reasons PriusChat has been so successful, Evan's involvement would definitely be near the top. He literally has helped me build a career and life for myself and my family.

    I'm hoping that Evan underestimates his ability to multitask and his need for study breaks :)

    Best of luck in your latest adventure, friend.
