They're a mix of computational math, computer science, computer engineering, industrial engineering and a few other majors (one photo major, too, I believe). I know because I co-founded the group with a bioinformatics major, and I'm in database administration myself :). It's just a bunch of guys that love music and do a pretty good job of it... check out the website and ask how you can get a CD ;) PS - You're awesome, Jonathan! LindsayD,

If the raw files stay available I may take a crack at it even if the contest is officially over.

Some people have no taste. So I submitted the post in a slightly re-worked form to a forum I frequent, and that resulted in someone remixing it that very evening (this was on the first day of the contest). My remix skills aren't really up to snuff. I did write another verse and try to get my wife to sing it -- it's from the perspective of the secretary. But we just ran out of time. Enough excuses. Sorry JoCo! I have failed you. :( Hey JoCo,

And, well, the time. Hey, I think I might know that middle singer in the green. Maybe others, if they play Go. And I do seem to recall preaching the Coulton catechism last time I was at the Go Congress. (Update: no, I think I'm just deluded.) I’d remix if I had the talent and the tools. And, well, the time.
