Knowing them, this is my advice from 2020: Be smarter and happier through doing things you like. Enjoy Gen. Ed. 105? Get some friends. They'll help you make the same sorts of discoveries about yourself. Afraid to say what you really feel because of Harvard's hyper-liberal atmosphere? Say it anyway--most of those people like a good fight as much as you do. Then you'll know yourself well enough to know what you really want out of life, and you'll know others well enough to make them give it to you. These may sound like...
...hardware for free--provided you sign up for the $20-a-month online gaming zone Sega Net--but its catalog of games keeps going from strength to strength. Joining must-haves like Soul Calibur and Crazy Taxi at the show was the epic role-playing Shenmue, whose lovingly rendered hyper-realistic environment surpasses anything yet available for PlayStation 2. Throw in positive feedback for the Microsoft X-box and early buzz about the Nintendo Dolphin, and there is good reason for Sony to watch its back...

Suppose I want to pursue a distance education project, to set up a hyper-linked classical lexicon, or script an international math-help bulletin board to study the way children learn. An institute, rather than a computer science affiliation, would provide the perfect opportunity...
...helped himself. He took on the difficult process of shedding his vice-presidential carapace and revealing himself to voters. He had a nice new riff about his Vietnam- and Watergate-era disillusionment with politics, but the New Gore wasn't always a pretty sight. He often seemed as hyper and needy as a ninth-grader on a first date. But at least voters realized that he was truly, madly, deeply committed to winning, and they liked that about him. Bradley's cool, take-it-or-leave-it approach to politicking began to pale by comparison...
