"Research on the Web seems to be fashionable these days and I guess I'm no exception. Recently I have been working on the Google search engine with Larry Page."

The education system is in a sad state, when people have to drop out of good schools like Harvard and Stanford to start billion dollar companies... and yet, they still can't afford to go back to college.
