Credit where credit is due...
Virtual Orientation [cnn]: Here's a situation of the wrong people getting credit for something. To set the record straight, in 2000, Technology Development at the University of dayton, headed up by Brian young, developed this concept. NOT Marcus Robinson. After an agreement between A&S and our department, they took over the site and reworked it (Ryan, phil, you remember that press conference? Yeah, it still sucks.) Anyway, just had to rant. NOTE: The freshman class at UD is 1894 students, not 3880, Marcus.

Dude! I totally forgot about the VR!

Yup. Brian was the father of the VR and I was the web monkey... er... programmer. ;-) We bounced a lot of ideas off of each other and struck major paydirt. (Didn't Phil make the original room flash animation?)
I have a PDF of an article Brian wrote about it dated in Q4 of 2000.

Oh well. Projects change hands, time marches on, and we move on to bigger and better things. (I'm currently writing a reentrant mainframe LDAP client in assembler containing a dynamic call stack and several recursive-descent parsers. Yummy...) Hopefully Marcus and his crew have the current version of the VR far ahead of what other schools can put out.

I just hope it's compatible with Mozilla. ;-)

P.S. My roommates love crazyfarts.com.
