How about a collective response! Everybody that read this student's request and/or answered should send a bill to the Rutgers Univerity Comptrollers Office for tutorial expenses. >> It is due Thursday afternoon..... > > Sucks to be you. I think this guy should go hang out until Friday at one of the watering holes on Easton Ave. and drink, until he pukes, to his future success in the real world. Ron is destined to start up a mom-and-pop software shop and steal the efforts of others as his own and then, sue the originator for ownership! A great future for Ron or, at a minimum, his law(lie)yer. > You are a loser, Ron.
