    • Nope, no Aimpoint yet. Keep changing my mind. I'm still leaning towards the Micro T-1 though.
      CZ P01 = Great gun, its in my nightstand, not a carry gun because of the bulk of the light rail.
      Plastic should be recycled, not shot. I keep looking at this thing and really like it. I do NOT need another platform, let alone more mags to buy.
      BwaHaHaHaHaHa yes...Arsenal goodness! But seriously, you should have seen the other half dozen Arsenals I did NOT buy at the auction. I mis-read the listing and thought this was 5.56x39.
      on hold right now do to my backlog of paracord work. you gonna be home today? I can bring the magpul dvd by later.
      well I'm not sure I'll be able to go at this point. I just got home and its pretty nasty out so I'm assuming mccsc will continue its stellar record of shutting school down prematurely.
      Yeah, I'm still in Washington. I should be home around the middle of next week. The weather is usually around 50 for a high, and about 50% chance of rain. It never rains hard though. Just a drizzle.
      There is a great deal of work available for Env. Science grads, but most of the better jobs go to those with a master's degree... it sucks, but it's the way it is. Stick it out and get your master's if you can. Most of the work is in the private sector. Work sectors include industrial health and safety, environmental permitting, laboratory work and research, and site cleanup (this is what I do). There is also work in the public sector with EPA and with state environmental agencies.

      I would not get a public affairs degree - I have one (mine is in Environmental Policy and Natural Resource Management), and it's useless.
      IU had a course that was mixed grad/undergrad called "Vector based GIS" that was pretty good. I think you really need to take a class on GIS in lieu of learning from a book - many of the concepts are pretty advanced and it helps to have an instructor. Plus, you need access to the software.

      It's very hard to get your foot in the door RE the conservation LE and park ranger work. Good luck with that. I originally wanted to do that when I went to IU but I got a look at the job placement stats - not good. I gave it up and declared an environmental science major instead.

      As for what I do - my job title is Environmental Scientist, and that's really what I do. I plan the cleanup of sites, gather samples, supervise cleanup work, conduct modeling and analysis, and write reports. The pay is decent, and the job is satisfying and never boring, but the hours are long.
      no problem, you just want me to bring it by later? I'll be out doing stuff. and yeah the M&P is suuuweet!
