“Oh, so ‘m I,” Calvin said gaily. “But now at least I know we’re going somewhere.”
Today I told my advisor that I found a published dissertation that pretty much does what I had planned to do. I had found it last weekend but only told her about it today because today I’ve got a new idea, one that might actually work. Oh how much better it is to have a theory born of texts than to have a spontaneously generated idea based on…nothing at all, really.
Abiogenesis of dissertations? Put a lid on that chicken soup! ;)
