You created an account just to post that deep thought? Why troll?


Really wasn't meant to be a troll honestly, just an observation of the sometimes undue attention MIT gets. This happens on slashdot and every other forum. There are plenty of great schools doing great things, yet media has cast MIT as `the` place for all things tech. When there's a character in a movie who's a cool techie, they went to MIT. If you're a fictional character joining the CIA, you went to MIT. I can see how my comment unduly denigrates the judgement of the community in general, I'm sorry for that. Invariably however, maybe due to the name recognition at the aggregate, MIT stories always rise the top. It was a pretty stupid way of putting it originally, sorry.
