Prepaid Learning

Me and my friends thought and pondered about this while doing squat at a lecture on Distance learning.

If we had prepaid learning cards... so, let's say P100 worth would grant you 10 hours of learning per month, P500 would give you twenty plus 5 hours on off peak learning hours. If you buy a P1000 you get unlimited learning hours per month.

What if the learning server went down, just like PRO... do you get like twice the learning rate? What if you earn learning credits? If you buy say 100 learning hours you get a discount on each succeeding hour? Here's something else, what if they give a promo like this.

E-LEARNING CARDS.
Collect all 20 unique commemorative designs. Limited time only

What if they got like a picture of different people or topics on the front? I bet the Nobel Prize for Physics pinup collection would go pretty well. (Yech! Einstein in speedo!)

I wonder if you could pay tag-pipiso and get like a minute of learning? Here's another thing to consider... does the load expire after a few days?

On a totally unrelated note: Persistence pays off. After months in the Gmail queue, I finally got one. Although the glamour wore off when everybody in the block got an invite before I did...
