| "For some reason it is much easier to pay attention sitting here alone at home than at the Bar Center where one is distracted talking to the guy in the next seat or getting up for coffee or near napping on those cushy chairs; one also doesn't have the problem of paying for it and not being able to show up because of THAT CERTAIN client last minute problem. THIS IS THE WAY TO GO and in fact universities such as ECU are offering whole masters degrees online with no distinction between resident participants and online participants. Excellent informative speaker who was personable (is he really a lawyer) and held one's attention." (Raleigh, 0) |
