It has come to my attention recently that EVERY SINGLE one of you people have been saving your files in .doc and .docx format, and as i have already told some of you people, to save it in Rich Text Format, or .rtf and contradictory to common misconceptions, it will open EXACTLY the same as when u save using .doc or .docx format and takes up ALOT LESS space then .doc or .docx format, becuase it does not save all the previous changes made to the document, and since we are passing the documents around like that, we should try to make the file as small as possible to make all our lives easier when transfering from one person to another, as well as to make more space avaliable on your computer's hard disk.

preferbably i would rather we use .odt format as it takes up even less space and is for open office, but i have come to the realization that all you sad people have been completly brainwashed by microsoft and Bill Gates, and think that microsoft office is better then open office since open office is free, but you have failed to realise that since it is a open source program, and is worked on by thousands of professional people with the one aim to make your lives better and to break the monopoly of microsoft by providing your with SUPERIOR and BETTER word processors, spreadsheet processors and presentational side makers for FREE. and since this is edited by thousands of people, and feed back is collected from millions of people that use it, the interface, as well as the functions present in open office is in every way superior to the propertarian, overpriced, lousy, high memory and cpu consuming and inflexibility in microsoft office, both 2003 and 2007(actually it has always been that way from the very start ever since Bill gates left Harvard to start Microsoft) and this major FLAWS will NEVER be overcomed for as long as microsoft has the monopoly of the OS industry, so dont go round hoping that they will dramatically inprove ms office with the next update, or even in the next version, because it wll never happen. so in conclusion i ask of you not be so blind and be misled into thinking that microsoft is trying its best to provide you with the best software on the market, and to shed the misconception that you have that free software is not as good as somthing you paid hundreds of dollars for. i do not ask for your money, only your support in the war against microsoft, and you can take the first step by downloading and using open office from http://www.openoffice.org/, and uninstall microsoft office as soon as you install open office, you will find that years from now when you grow old and retire, and when you look back, you will find that you have had a much richer, fuller life that is stress - free, and when you relise how much longer you have lived becuase you did NOT use microsoft office or as few or none of their products, you will look back and think to yourself how lucky you have been to have learnt of the treacheries of microsoft, and help in the fight against it to save the next generation from this money sucking plague that we now know to be Mircosoft.

please help to spread the word of the treacheries of microsoft and help to support the open source community in its war against microsoft.

P.S : the next person that sends me a document in .doc or .docx format will face my furry and of the open source community in school.

Rion.

Hey all,

I am proud to announce that I have come out with a concept of how to curb slackers from slacking in any projects and thus allow everyone to do work in a fair manner. This is known as the slacking credit cap-and-trade system.

First, everyone in the class will start off with 20 slacking credits. Slacking credits will entitle one to slack for a given amount of time which fluctuates with the value of slacking credits in the class cap-and-trade system.

Next, inflation must come in. Without tight regulation of the slacking credit trading system, the value of the slacking credit will rise quickly. Therefore, the value of the slacking credit should not exceed an inflation rate of more than 30% per week.

A demand-and-supply issue for the slacking credit system is critical. In weeks with loads of tests, there will be an anticipated major selldown in slacking credits as everyone will want to revise for their tests and quizzes. Therefore, the supply goes up while demand goes down. This will decrease the value of the slacking credit. For example, 100 slacking credits can be used to exempt one to do a SECTION of the report ONLY; during a major selldown, the amount of slacking credits needed will be more than 200. When demand goes up, when everyone starts earning their slacking credits by working a lot for projects, the supply goes down and the value of the slacking credits will increase.

This will allow to serve as a curb on the slacking period each group member can slack for.

Now, how to earn/spend slacking credits?
Basically, the price is currently pegged at 100 slacking credits to exempt yourself from cleaning up the lab tables; 200 for exemption to do a report.

By doing reports and doing practicals, you will be able to earn slacking credits which you can use later.

When one has no slacking credits at all, peer review will then be taken into effect. This is to allow a fair judgement and evaluation of the peer evaluation.

Thank you,
Bryce
