Thanks all. Especially Lara for the site because it has been such a help to me to think through some of the great questions posted and to read some of the thorough responses from everyone ....I sort of feel like the site has been on my prep team.

If I may paraphase old Henry - although in a much more enthusiastic spirit:

"You are become a doctor, kb, able to instruct us and not be instructed by us ..."

Congratulations! I know this is the culmination of a lot of hard work and dedication. I have learned so much from you on these threads. I hope your dissertation may be made available for us to read at some point.

KB - Congratulations!!! I can’t even begin to imagine how much work it must be to get that far. But I do hope you still have time to answer questions. I always appreciate your responses.

Awesome! Many congratulations!

Congratulations, KB. Having "been there" and "done that," I know what you went through. And I know what a huge relief it is to be finished! Well done!

Congratulations KB! I wish I could be smart too!

kb said...

Diane - I think the whole process has a lot more to do with persistence than smart. It's mostly just keep your head down, keep reading and keep re-writing....

but thanks for the congrats.

Congratulations!!!! I envy you. And I too hope that you will continue to answer our questions and help us to understand our fasination and for some of us, our obsession.
