It about the best school, if she gets the Linguistics school, she'll have a degree when she's 20, if she goes OCS, about when shes 25, she'll be able to work anywhere in the world she wants for great pay. I can afford her to go to college. She already has a year of college done. When they interveiw, they'll ask her background, she'll tell them she went to a Naval school and go to the top of the list. My daughter is the one that brought this idea to me, she wants some adventure and she wants the best schooling, this is where she's going to get it and again, the regular Navy doesn't go on the battle field!

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
