I asked one of my supervisors last night, over a few drinks, whether I  
could submit my thesis in the form of 55 000 really small, but very  
pretty pictures, instead of the corresponding number of words, but he  
didn't seem overly impressed with the idea. I'll see if interpretative  
dance works any better next time.

Thanks, David :)
