Found on the Internet

Ever Google yourself and get really surprised by what you find? That happened to me today. I googled "Snively" and found out that I had been featured on the Ig Nobel website back in January. Go figure!

  3. When I googled myself, I found that I share names with a basketball player from florida, a botanical engineer (whatever that is...sounds like euphemism for gardener), an acoustic singer, and a man with a PhD in Applied Chemistry and a mustache. Yup, seems I'm bound for greatness.

    Snively/Mike/Michael (I don't remember what you like to be called)--

    It's amazing that I found you!! I tried to search for you on the MIT website after I met you, but I didn't remember your name, so... it was pretty difficult.

    Remember taking a tour of MIT on November 10? And how a middle-aged man with partially gray hair started asking you questions about MIT as if he had applied there? And his daughter, who actually had applied there? That would be me... I got in!

    After reading bits of your blog, I'm really quite astounded I got in. I plan to read a lot more of your blog so I can get a better feel for what MIT is like. Obviously I'm going to come visit the campus & sleepover.

    But, I basically just wanted to get in touch with you and say thank you for being our personal-tour guide that day.
