Those pictures? They would be my dissertation.
Good news: My final chapter's been approved. Bad news: My advisor's email continued, "[b]ut please put an 'and' in the first sentence." I thought comma splices were in this season.

You should pitch this poster to the City of London tourist board. Doesn't it make you want to visit, or better yet invest in Europe's largest city? Be honest.

Vance, I'm switching between London and Scientist X, London and Sociologist Y, &c. pretty frequently, hence the need to restate his name so often.
Adam, I like the idea: "Come visit London, we have a Time Hive!"
