Setup

Roland was in one of the larger lecture halls, investigating the space.

"Hello." Amanda said as she waddled into the room.

by **Roland Sackville** » Fri Dec 23, 2011 3:50 pm

"Ah, Amanda, was it?"

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Fri Dec 23, 2011 4:02 pm

"Still is. I cam by to see if I could help you with getting settled in."

by **Roland Sackville** » Fri Dec 23, 2011 4:47 pm

"Oh, I wouldn't want anyone in your delicate condition to overtax themselves."

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Sat Dec 24, 2011 12:29 am

"I was talking about helping you with the A/V equipment, not carrying boxes up to your office."

by **Roland Sackville** » Sat Dec 24, 2011 12:50 am

"Ah, of course. I'm afraid I'm at a bit of a loss here..."

"Its really quite simple." Amanda said with a smile "They designed the interface for Liberal Arts majors."

by **Roland Sackville** » Sat Dec 24, 2011 1:29 am

"That entirely depends on when you got your degree in liberal arts."

"This is true, but it really is fairly easy to learn." Amanda replied.

by **Roland Sackville** » Sun Dec 25, 2011 10:44 pm

"Show me, then."

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Mon Dec 26, 2011 12:57 am

"Ok." Amanda said, starting up the screen.

by **Roland Sackville** » Mon Dec 26, 2011 2:22 am

Roland looked, getting progressively more frustrated as Amanda went on.

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Mon Dec 26, 2011 2:31 am

"What is the problem?"

by **Roland Sackville** » Mon Dec 26, 2011 2:42 am

"How did you get the picture up there on the screen."

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Mon Dec 26, 2011 10:21 pm

"This machine is connected to the scree by cables." Amanda said "It lets you see what is going on on this screen."

by **Roland Sackville** » Tue Dec 27, 2011 12:47 am

"But I thought the picture was in THIS computer?"

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Tue Dec 27, 2011 12:53 am

"The computer shows its picture on two screens." Amanda explained "Think of it as being like a projector."

by **Roland Sackville** » Tue Dec 27, 2011 1:10 pm

"This seems needlessly complicated. We didn't have anything like this when I was going to school, and we learned just fine."

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Wed Dec 28, 2011 2:26 am

"Yes, but we aren't allowed to beat recalcitrant pupils." Amanda pointed out.

by **Roland Sackville** » Wed Dec 28, 2011 2:36 am

"Do some of them a lot of good, wouldn't you say?"

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Wed Dec 28, 2011 2:38 am

"My mom was more of a fan of time outs and stern talking to's."

by **Roland Sackville** » Wed Dec 28, 2011 2:49 am

"Doesn't help the knowledge through."

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Wed Dec 28, 2011 12:41 pm

"No, but it does help with a lack of cooperation or motivation." Amanda said "this does help with learning, since not everyone absorbs information well through lectures."

by **Roland Sackville** » Wed Dec 28, 2011 12:54 pm

"You're suggesting I should put my students in time-out," he said, rather incredulously.

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Thu Dec 29, 2011 2:13 am

"Not at all." Amanda said "Merely pointing out that there are alternatives to beatings"

by **Roland Sackville** » Thu Dec 29, 2011 2:28 am

"I've never trusted that research, honestly."

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Tue Jan 03, 2012 12:34 am

"Are you also a fan of humoral theory?" Amanda asked.

by **Roland Sackville** » Tue Jan 03, 2012 12:37 am

"That's pretty much been supplanted, though, like everything else, there are grains of truth in it. Some of which are ignored by your modern doctors."

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Tue Jan 03, 2012 12:51 am

"Oh trust me." Amanda said "They're still into bleeding."

by **Roland Sackville** » Tue Jan 03, 2012 1:05 am

"Who's the 'they' we're talking about?"

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Tue Jan 03, 2012 1:42 am

"Doctors."

by **Roland Sackville** » Tue Jan 03, 2012 1:46 am

"Who still practices blood-letting? I was informed that was very much a no now."

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Tue Jan 03, 2012 1:59 am

"You'd think that wouldn't you." Amanda said "But how else do you explain their passion for doing 'blood tests' at every opportunity?"

by **Roland Sackville** » Tue Jan 03, 2012 1:55 pm

"It's a cult."

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Tue Jan 03, 2012 6:00 pm

"Also possible." Amanda said, giggling a little.

by **Roland Sackville** » Tue Jan 03, 2012 6:49 pm

"A cult, favoring one of the humors over the other three. You never see them taking phlegm samples."

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Tue Jan 03, 2012 9:28 pm

"Not unless you have something really disgusting going on."

by **Roland Sackville** » Tue Jan 03, 2012 10:44 pm

"Things have gotten much less disgusting over the years."

by **Amanda Weinrich** » Tue Jan 03, 2012 11:00 pm

"For the most part."
