Thanks Craig.. .. Still having a belly  laugh at the Long list
of chapters of justification for the thesis that would have to be attached
to the Two Pages...

But you forgot about chapters on:

  those who do not
- Statistical analysis

- How employers in cohort-em may modify their

[G Mann via Mercedes]

The first phrase learned at your new job after taking an "Art History
Major" degree is:
"Would you like fries with that?"

I've often thought of writing a PhD thesis titled: "The cause of advanced
degree holders failure to gain employment in the employment market".
However, it always said everything and covered all the causes in only two
pages. ;))

in "something not commercially viable"
