Poly Sci IS an easy major. I think it's funny that you tout that reading list as if it's something impressive.

I'm taking computer science/engineering, and it demands a much heavier elective reading schedule than that (even during the semester). It's also technical reading, which takes a lot longer to digest. Once you add in the time that it takes to comprehend what you've read in any applicable fashion, there's just no comparison.

It'd be more than fair, in my estimation, to say that a page of a computer engineering textbook requires about 10-150 times more effort to comprehensivly read than a page from any of the authors you've listed.

I wish my reading load were twice what yours is.

You read Adorno and comprehend it. He's definitely the most complex philosopher I've read yet. Confusing philosophy is just as hard to comprehend as a computer engineering book, I PROMISE you. I've taken computer programming classes for fun, just so you know.

Good luck chuck.

It's sad to see another one attempt to quit, but... I , I guess it had to happen someday. [sniff]

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go Enjoy a cigarette. 8)
