I stay where I am because I love it here - it is one of America's "public ivies". Then I look at you, constantly having to try to pull others down to make up for your own lack of achievement, and make up phony credentials to try to put yourself on their level.

I care not about OSU P&T - the standards are the same at any reputable university. You probably didn't have to match up to them, though, did you? You have no peer reviewed materials science publications anywhere in your record. Science Citation Index says so. > > Now where I come from, work for industry are considered "gray > literature" and not considered as legit for tenure.

Contract work is never acceptable for P&T - only scientific publications in the best peer reviewed journals count. You are delusional. > > Again, your concern is telling here, as I represent myself truthfully, > which you yourself have shown. Even if I didn't attend the ACS > symposium, it's not the only one! Well, one admission is a start. I urge you you be healed, and purge yourself by confessing what we all know - you don't have anything else, either. You will feel much better, and the Baptists will welcome you back like a prodigal son.

Phil. if their life depended on it. ******************************************************* The evidence shows that some of the Oxford PhD's are dim bulbs as well.

Well, I only know one guy who went to Oxford. So I base my opinion on that. :-) |
