Care to name universities? having attended meteorology programs at
St. Louis University and Texas A&M, as well as close observation of
Florida State's program, I can assure you that *none* of them offer
the above lab.

Hey, Darth, have you taken any courses from a buddy of
mine from grad school, Chuck Graves, at St. Loius or my
former boss, Gerry North, at A&M?

BTW my program didn't launch any balloons either, and
I don't think students do where I am now, either. Kind of
a shame, though, since it would probably be fun as well
as instructive. Actually gathering data can provide insights
into potential errors which one may face later when doing
analysis.

Cheers,
Russell
