I found this and decided that maybe some out there in Cyber-space might just be interested or know someone else who would be.

MIT has FREE TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC courses via the web.  Nose around, you might find something that piques your interest.  The link is to the home page of the OCW (Open Course Work) section.

One of my life mottos is "Any day I learn something new is a GOOD day."

Here's a course on Practical Electronics...might come in handy.  Think I'll take a swing at it.  It's been a couple of hours since something or someone made me feel stupid.
