Conclusion

As I've been struggling to find one last interesting topic to write about, I've decided to finish this assignment off with a reflection, instead. As far as assignments go, I can think of far worse ones. I might even go so far as to say that it has been kind of enjoyable. The one thing that really dissapointed me however, was the lack of discussion that took place. I suppose I really shouldn't have expected much in the first place, but it certainly would have made this more enjoyable to do.
Looking back, I'm not certain that I've done much that was really directly to the material, and perhaps it would have been better to do more along those lines. Of course, looking at some of the other weblogs, I see that I'm not entirely alone in choosing a great deal of semi-off topic topics. I also didn't get to write about several of the topics I had originally wanted to do. A month or two ago, there was an article in a paper from home about chimeric experimentation (mixing the genetic material of two different species) that I had wanted to look at. I also had an article from Air & Space magazine that examined the Challenger accident and took a tour of the process of manufacturing the SRBs. I had planned on hosting the article on my server space here, so that people could read it, but I had some trouble in getting it scanned.
