Okay given the way my week has gone and the mood I'm currently in, I too must add to this.

Given that I don't have the letters "PhD" after my name, I doubt that I am physically and intellectually capable of providing references for anything I say. I prefer to let ten years of year round teaching (18-22 contact hours per week) be my "reference".

...back to the real world...
