mcclearyironman 2002-06-10 16:39:35 | Hey Stephen, I just read your profile for the first time and I have a stupid question. Are you really only 18??? I have heard you talk about exams in other forums and I though you meant graduate studies Master degree college studies. I pictured you as at least 25 or so. Do you go to high school? If it is not a typo then Ithink it is amazing all you have accomplished. I have used a few of your programs and I think they are awesome. Especially the Muon Project. |
Thomas King 2002-06-11 01:07:16 | He is a bit strange like that. We were at school together for a while, and he was 2 years ahead of me because he was so good at maths and science and things, but he wasn't so good at french so we had french lessons together and I remember he occasioanlly drove the french teacher nuts bu cunningly using very complicated verbs. I drove the teacher nuts by not doing any work. Neuf! Grank grank! |
Stephen Brooks 2002-06-28 05:04:43 | I keep intending to put up a page here at some stage which actually explains who I am. I usually just put up all the content and forget some people will be interested in where it came from! Yes, I am 18, but I did things early, so I already have a BSc from the Open University and next summer will get an MMath (i.e. masters level) from Oxford. I did some of that concurrently with the OU one, so have done the equivalent of 6 years undergraduate-level study so far. --[I have used a few of your programs and I think they are awesome. Especially the Muon Project.]-- That's great - most of the programs here went up about a year ago and some of them could probably do with an upgrade, but a lot of them still seem alright. "As every 11-year-old kid knows, if you concentrate enough Van-der-Graff generators and expensive special effects in one place, you create a spiral space-time whirly thing, AND an interesting plotline" |
Darkhorse 2003-09-20 12:44:19 | My God, 18?! I was enjoying Muon et al under the assumption that it was written by somebody older than me. Now I find that Mr Brooks is younger and twice as qualified as myself. [Fume with jealousy] An embittered Cambridge reject P.S. Though I can still enjoy Muon, right? |
Stephen Brooks 2003-09-22 06:26:47 | I am actually 19 now - this thread is nearly a year old! It doesn't make any sense: that's why they call it "virtual" |
Darkhorse 2003-09-22 12:17:28 | Aha, Now you see why I failed my Cambridge Interview. Apologies |
