I think Scott dashes people to pieces in posts like this because he is afraid of being loved. An inherent fear of commitment buried deep inside.

No, Scott's just REALLY good at this shit... It's just like when I came over and made an ass outta you while you were trying to replace your clutch.

I honestly wasn't trying to come down on the paper at all!

It's a rough draft, so of course it's got stuff that needs updating. I just posted up the simple stuff I noticed that the spell checker didn't catch, plus my take on making the paper better as far as grading is concerned. Getting a good grade on a term paper is easy: say what you're going to talk about, talk about it, then remind the reader that you just talked about what you said you were going to talk about. If you do that, and meet the formatting/spelling/grammar/sources/length requirements, it's virtually impossible for the teacher to give you less than an A on the paper.

It seems to me that Moose has already done plenty of research, I assume the formatting will be taken care of in the final draft since that's as simple as just setting the margins and crap, so IMO all the paper needs is some basic proof-reading for typos and more direct intro and summary paragraphs with the supporting parts of the paper reorganized to match the thesis. All the hard work (the research) is done!

I was under the impression that getting this sort of feedback was exactly why Moose posted the draft up!

I like to make grad students cry when checking their drafts. Should I go over this too?

Sperry, thanks for the tips. I fixed all the errors, but, I only changed the conclusion.

New Phase in the Project.
Now I have to do a product.
I was thinking of making a video of the cars of seccs.
For example, autocross, track days or even back road rally.
I am trying to get a video of all the different Imprezas and Legacies.
If anyone wants to help, let me know please.

I have in car video as do others. Putting together my rear facing footage and Scott's forward facing from RFR might be cool and give you two Imprezas.

I have about a terabyte of uncut MPEG. You have to be way more specific about what you want. Even a single 20 minute session from one camera is going to be too large to email.

I've got a SubieSport magazine but it doesn't have anything really on the svx or leg. It does talk about the world meet and a little about the rally. Has awesome pictures though.

I'll be Reno bound next weekend and I'll probably stick around the entire month of May. I'll go slide my L around in the dirt for you if you need more video.

Just a little correction for your draft. The 08 wrx still had 224hp and was not revamped until 09 when it was given 265hp. Also the 08 sti has 305hp not 330hp. The big change in the sti was the fact it went to a hatch. Subaru did that because it could widen the wheelbase in an attempt to make it more competitve in the WRC.

Bump.
Dean, have you found any video for what I was asking?
Sperry, could you find some video of Dean following you or you chasing him please?
I only need two minutes of video from both of you.

Also, I would like to use some peoples Imprezas. I would like all the different models from 2002 to 2009.
If anyone could help me with that, just pm and I will give you all the details. I would only need you for about 15 minutes.

I've got video like that up on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/sperry04)... but it'll be a challenge finding the original footage as the DV tapes are unlabeled in a box I haven't seen since before I moved, and the original rips are probably on an old hard drive in a box of like 15 old hard drives.
