Thanks for all the posts everyone, on socialism. I think Jeff has a good
idea on it. Im not going to cram myself to death to study and remember
everything. I can say however that i have already read Jeff Doyle volume I
all the eway through and halabi. I wil l go back and review them again on
tuff topics. I have taken time in between the books and have been reading
outside at parks when the weather is nice, and i have remember allot of what
i read, so having spacing in between i think is helping me.
My lab is in october so im hoping to have all reading done by end of june.
Then practice practice practice, but that gives me time for social life in
between.
Thanks for the comment on humor Jeff. Im trying to get a positive outlook on
my journey and knowing im putting a smile on someones face is nice to hear.
Good luck to you on your studies, i think you will do fine.
God Speed-
Chris Martin
