    grad/law student challenge

    This one is mostly aimed at Homey, but really any of the students, grad, law or even undergrad, that post here can participate.

    The challenge is:

    Find a way to cite this paper in your thesis, dissertation, capstone, or any other piece of writing you produce.

    Obviously, law and psych people will probably have an easier time finding an excuse to cite it than I will in my field of experimental high energy physics, but dammit, I'll try to bury it in the references section of my dissertation. I have over 150 so far, so that part shouldnt be hard...its the actual citing of it that is.

    I don't think I can work this into my paper on the market demand for combines, maybe I could work into my operations paper in a very oblique way.

    Not sure how that applies to biology or mechanics of materials, but it would certainly make for a more interesting paper than what I'm about to spit out after 4 months.

    I could get that in a paper. All it would take is a paper about church law prohibiting the tri-tone (The "Devil's Interval") from appearing in church music back in the middle ages. Relate it to modern-day sociological phenomena, and there you go: one good ****-paper citation.
    ... that's not food.

    However, I bet you could get the papers author to represent you when you sue the school for billions. maybe even pro-bono.

    Sorry Ike. While it is an amusing idea, I can't, I'm Baptist.

    In the beginning, the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

    maybe, but then again it wouldn't necessarily preclude you from being anti-bono either, I suppose.
