Comment from David

My apologies, meant it to mean his Spartan career, assuming he has some sort of professional hockey career. It would undoubtedly be the perfect way for Tropp to end his Michigan State career to have to watch Kampfer celebrate a playoff victory on Tropp’s home ice, as Tropp sits helplessly and can do nothing to prevent it. Perfect that Tropp had led the team so brilliantly throughout most of the first half, but then doesn’t even make it to the Joe and probably not the NCAA tournament. Perfect that it happened in warmups on the flukiest of all possible plays. If Comley had disciplined him properly (suspending him for the remainder of a season that the rest of the team had already quit on was meaningless) then maybe there wouldn’t be a burning hatred of Tropp among the entire Michigan fanbase. Where exactly do I knock your school’s program in that comment? I could if you would like. It’s sad that your fanbase, three years removed from a national championship, could be so utterly nonchalant about a sport you guys take so much pride in. You could try to compare it to Michigan basketball, but even when we were awful, when we played “playoff” games (NIT), our fans showed up and filled up the arena. Seeing those seats empty, and the sit on your hands attitude of the MSU fans was just sad. If Michigan fans weren’t there starting chants, the place would’ve been a library. Why do I knock Alex’s “reporting”? All I’m going to say is last year he defended the actions of Tropp and Conboy, which were despicable at best. It makes me question his journalistic integrity, and that won’t go away.

Spring forward

Daylight savings time begins this weekend. We spring forward an hour. Why do we do this? A search in GALILEO turned up this interesting article from the Washington Post. How did I find a current article with a brief history of Daylight Savings Time? I went to Search in GALILEO..Typed in Daylight Savings Time....Clicked on Full Text....Selected 2010 as the year....I unclicked Academic Search Complete and Research Library....I clicked on Show More DatabasesI scrolled through the list looking for newspapers. I figured a newspaper might have a current history on Daylight Savings time.....I selected Newspaper Source and ProQuest Newspapers Selected the Search 2 databases button (I like how it tells me how many databases I've selected)It was in ProQuest Newspapers that I found the Washington Post articleI like the ending... In 2005, Congress moved the start date up three weeks and moved the end date back one week, adding an entire month to daylight saving -- and saving energy. That, however, may not apply to you, with all the energy you will spend playing outside in the extra daylight.Lets go outside and play (if it quits raining).-klsYou may get the current password to use GALILEO at home from your Georgia librarian.View from the Library maintained by The Librarian at Chattahoochee Technical College, North Metro Campus c2010 (Source: View from the library)
