I have read them, hence my puzzlement with your breast enhancement statement. That said, that was a bit hostile, don't you think? Even if the Internet was a massive AI out to get you, fair use for nonprofit educational purposes, in combination with minimal amount and insubstantial section (i.e. breasts) of the work as a whole, with minimal if any value detracted from the work put you on the right side of copyright law.

Isn't it?

I suspect Carl-E extrapolated from personal experience that Padma's parents were professors, mostly for the obvious reason: her name indicates she's not exactly native to the area. One characteristic of many small colleges is that they hire people from outside the immediate area (and, possibly in Padma's parents' case, outside of the country) as professors at their school. This explains why you would see the children of Kenyan natives in a bookstore in a place like Holyoke, or a Pakistani working at a pizza place in Amherst.
And as for location: I suspect tSB is located a block or two from Smif College, whereas CoD is located closer to the Interstate/Amtrak line. It's been speculated by This Troper ;) that CoD is located somewhere over on Pleasant Street, which is a bit further away from the Smif campus, but not far away enough that Smif girls wouldn't end up there for some coffee. My suspicion is that tSB is located on a dead-end street that would be (generally) opposite the way Marten would hoof it to work from home.
(EDITED for clarity - I was rushing before work, sorry.)
Is it cold in here?:
I believe we've never heard what part of California Marten is from. We can speculate that someone like his mom would be more comfortable in southern CA.

It is discussed in depth on the commentary tracks of the newest run of the anime, as well, which is where I got the comment from. As for the hostility bit, I was making a remark that wasn't intended to derail the thread and you're trying to pursue it. Plus I don't think I should have to explain something that is almost well known enough to have it's own page on TVTropes (Hellsing was just the most ready example because it is the most recent anime/only manga I've read, there are others and it's one of the things anime is regularly mocked for).
