Jamil is in a good chunk of the paper already, so is John Blichmann, and yes even you Justin!
I want to show, throughout the paper, that a "silly" hobby can really change someone's life for the better. Mostly to prove that not all beer drinkers are just a bunch of deadbeat drunks; there are many positives in beer, to be sure, I just want to write a paper that can illustrate these points.
Thanks guys/gals/JP.
So ... are we going to get a link to your paper when you are done?
My daughter just turned in a college term paper on history of beer and home brewing, like 5000 words. She used a lot of the How Beer Saved the World perspective; first agriculture, currency, vaccine research and patriotic history, with me following our founding fathers habits. Even threw Obama in there. Very nice read and I'm proud of her for it. Hope you both get a good grade on your papers
Thanks, man. Mine is not really a technical paper, per se, it is for a creative writing class and she wants a non-fiction paper. I figure I may as well write about something I know a little bit about. I did one already on homebrewing and I got great feedback. I even had a guy in class come to my house and showed him how it is done. He got a Mr. Beer kit a few years ago and wanted to get back into it. So, I made a friend, got an "A", and drank beers. Can't beat that right?
