LimeSurvey handles this brilliantly. If you’re in the market for FLOSS survey software, its the best.

Thanks, Fred!

I hear from Paul that you are having comps prep fun of your own. Good luck to you as well!

Thanks for the recommendation, Raymond. I’ll check it out.

And also for the apology. No worries… it is cataloging class. For most people, if you weren’t sleepy before class you are going to be sleepy after, whether from boredom or information overload.

Then there are those of us who get all into it.

Just be glad you didn’t take it when I taught it as a 2.5 hour night class… even I almost fell asleep by the end of that class.

And good…. my examples are working…

I’m not going to admit how long I just stared at “and fellow committee member S. Bother” trying to figure out who you would be referring to as “S. Bother.” Finally my eyes went to the next line… ooooh…

You mentioned this elsewhere and I thought “that had to be S. That sounds like S.”

I promise I am not trying to beat Helen Tibbo’s record. :-p

I was walking back from Chancellation event when I ran across D. and fellow committee member S. Bother were very pleased with the writing quality, all though there was some trepidation on S.’s part that based on the lit review, the dissertation itself should be provided with wheels and a handcart

Me, I’m glad that turnit in doesn’t do lit reviews yet cos I can use great big chunks of review. J

Kristina,

I remember you asking for recommendations for new music. I like to recommend the artist Hammock. They recently released an album called “Maybe They Will Sing For Us Tomorrow,” and ther debut album Kenotic is also worth a listen. I saw them with Stars of the Lid this past weekend. The show was definitely a memorable experience for me. Sorry if I seemed disinterested in your class because half the time I was just very sleepy. Maybe I listen to too much ambient music. I think all I am going to remember is you had very interesting cataloging examples of cats and spirits.(j/k).
