The Society of Women Engineers at U Minn ca. 1980 preferred:

By Becoming Revolutionary Orators, Young Girls Become Very Great Women


I disagree with the sentiment - I think they should become engineers - but
this is a little easier to take than rape.  Perhaps some bright poetic
type can come up with something better.

On the other hand, if you really want to learn color code, take 10,000 random
resistors, dump them in a box, and SORT them.  You'll know color code
when you are done.  What good it will do now that you have squint blindness
isn't my problem ;-).
