tough crowd

lecture is good but camera man sucks. It's free though, and I appreciate it! Just wish I could look at the print-out while the lecture was going on.

@momarjones i think tax books/classes are worse. i can't think of ANYONE who is interested in taxes.

its like a joke man.. what can you do with such an education afterwards.. go cleaning the floors of the reactor or what XD

wtf is wrong with that guy.. what does he even know? is he only able to describe a process with red and blue balls?? im happy to be a german engeneer stud. because if this kind of lecturing is stanford standart i have to laugh..

i need the book the teacher made... i didnt really learn anything in this lecture also. dont know if it was the content of the lecture or if it was the lecture style... but isnt it obvious that there is some sort of process for whatever chemical reaction, or product that starts from raw material to finished product? dont understand what the point of this lecture is, maybe someone can explain it to me.
