After reading your last response.....I am somewhat interested to know what it is that you do. I don't care the least bit to search "over the years" to see what it is......something though is telling me that it really isn't that big of a deal....at all.

Well, I just have a little doctorate in molecular genetics and I have worked, and am currently working on new methods of treatment for atherosclerosis, diabetic cardiomyopathy, breast cancer in situ and progeria. My current irrelevant position is at a major university (Div IA) that has had these scientists receive these insignificant awards, I think they call them "Nobel Prizes". But I guess it "really isn't a big of deal...at all".
I guess helping large populations of people, given that heart disease is the number one killer in America "really isn't a big of a deal...at all".
I guess I should just quit because affirmative action gave me this opportunity and I am worthless because I took advangtage of this chance to succeed and be a positive contributing member of society that pays my taxes.

I have strong research suggesting that I was speaking Black Vernacular English. A language separate from mainstream American English. I had to speak BVE because if you visit the neighborhoods where I have resided and spoke mainstream English, you would have been killed... You can think that my ability to cross languages quickly, such as you have incorrectly identified as "ebonics", lacks any kind of "intelligence", however my enslaved ancestors often used this mode of communication when developing the spy network in the underground railroad against the Confederacy...
So, I wonder who is less intelligent, especially when the "word on the streets" are ignored simply because it is viewed as deficient.
But hey, I am accustomed to be discounted and ruled out of the life "competition". I just dust myself off and say "bring it on..."
