Troubled Nerd
February 2nd, 2007 |How things can change in just 18 months.
Ohio Supercomputer Center Grooming Next Generation of Scientists:
Taylor Killian, a 17 year old from Westerville, Ohio, says he loves computers and has been working with them since he was 12 years old. Taylor says his experience at the OSC Summer Institute will give him an advantage as he completes high school and enters college. He starts his junior year at Westerville North High School this fall.
“It’s been really fun, and we got to experiment with so many things here that most people can’t even imagine and they’re all using supercomputing to create these things,” Taylor said. They showed us so many different career opportunities in the computer science field and how we can use what we’ve learned here to help us in the future. I definitely want to have a career in computer science.”
What a bight and industrial boy! Such a good role model for the rest of a nations youth.
Or, maybe not. AP:
Taylor Killian, 18, had rubbed his body with grapeseed oil to keep from being caught, and got up after the first time he was shocked to continue running toward a group of frightened students huddled in a corner at Westerville North High School, Lt. Jeff Gaylor said.
“That prank went a little farther than he intended, I guess,” Gaylor said.
Officer Doug Staysniak was monitoring the lunch period when Killian, with long hair and a full beard, ran in the room toward students, who screamed and ran away. The officer is normally assigned to a middle school and did not recognize Killian as a student, Gaylor said.
Police said that an administrator ordered Killian to stop, but that the student made a sexual gesture and kept running.
Killian is in jail and charged with inducing panic, public indecency, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct. A message seeking comment was left at Killian’s home.
Humm…You know, you just can’t trust those computer nerds. Everything will be just fine and then one of them will snap, grease up and run around naked.
I am frightened to think what goes on dork central where Skibby and Der Kruiser are employed.
