Der.Hans,

I will take that into consideration.  I was thinking about getting into
mcc because with a student discount on plane fair, it would also drop my
moving expenses.  I will be moving to Germany in about 8 months.

I still have plenty of time to learn to read/write, but the
conversational german I could get out of a few visits to this could be
help as well!  Thanks for the tip!
