Hello, I am a 98 Graduate of GaTech's CS program. I am returning in August of 2001 to pursue the MS degree in CS. I currently live and work in Colorado Springs for Agilent Technologies. I need to remotely locate a place to live from August 15th 2001 to August 2002. I am a single white straight male. I am 26 years old. I am a professional software engineer and a very responsible person. My income is guaranteed by Agilent Technologies while I'm attending school, so there won't be any issues with payment of rent. I have excellent rental references. I'm a very flexible, easy going, fun loving person. I would like to rent a room for this one-year period if possible. I prefer a location within walking distance to Tech, but barring that, I would be willing to live in a nice place nearby (no farther than the belt-line). Please reply here or contact me at (719) 590-3693 if you have a place that might work for me... Thanks, Mike Holloway ---------------------------- R&D Engineer Design Validation Unit Agilent Technologies

I hate to be a smartass, but I can't resist. Kudos for being a straight white male. I'm sure we all needed the extreneous info. If I was a male looking for a female room mate, I probably would like to read the line "single straight female seeking roommate."

He was just specifying in case someone has a preference. Remember, he's trying to find a place to stay without actually visiting to look around, so it's in his interest to disclose as fully as possible any relevant aspects of his personality. -- Bruce Labbate CS Senior 2130TA | Georgia Institute of Technology | "Bruce is psycho. :)" Phone: (404)206-4665 | - jess Email: bruce@cc.gatech.edu |

Exactly.... People don't like to just pick up j-random guy.... at least you know a little bit more about the package before you live with it! -- AngryBob Systems Consultant - http://www.trellisinc.com M$ wrote it, you think they could make them work together, how hard can it be, some geek in Finland didn't seem to have any trouble figuring out how to do it for free! -- John Cronin

FYI, I have looked for a place in the past. I either planned ahead and made arrangments with friends, stayed in a hotel for a few days, or asked my friends if they knew anyone. I don't like living with strangers. But I guess if I was looking for a roommate on a newsgroup, I would prefer a description including info such as nonsmoker, no pets, good hygiene, shower and bathe daily.

But I wow, you knew people? an incoming grad student might not have that luxury. If you're going to flame someone, at least take the time to put a smidgin of thought into it, people will notice the difference. -- AngryBob Systems Consultant - http://www.trellisinc.com an infinite number of monkeys typing into GNU emacs would never make a good program -- linux/Documentation/CodingStyle
