    so... been lurkin for a few weeks, wanted to hit the ground running without inudating everyone with repitative questions. Sasquatch, you don't know me, but I believe I owe you a sandwich and the month's rent, so I will try to pay it back in full.

    The source URL for the information on one of the Rubin HITs I just encountered was www.hotcourseusa.com. Now, I just can't imagine why the course # and name was so wrong...

    I've had to return several Rubin HITs because the course doesn't exist and the source link was absolute garbage. I need a break. I've had to return the last 5. Does Rubin post some on the weekends ever or no?

    i think most people who do these regularly have learned to pretty much ignore the source link. the only time i even look at it is if the course designator or number is completely wrong, then i check to make sure the person who did the course hit was even looking at the right school. use the college's own schedule. if you can't find it, just move on and work on other schools.

    It's a survey we took recently about whether we see eyes or not. They were mostly of monkey or gorilla eyes, flashing on and off constantly for like half hour. Now that was annoying.
