Fascinating topics, both of them! So far outside my realm. I am writing articles on things like "Structuring your development team to leverage undergraduate student skills", and "Active learning in the Professional Development Arena". Isn't it interesting what can be turned into educationally oriented fodder? 
I am repeatedly astounded at the amount of people in this forum with, or working on, advanced degrees. Is that true of most lizard forums, or do Uros just attract a more educated crowd? Hmmm, another potential thesis topic! 
Good Luck both of you on your Thesis. I must admit to being glad I am not dealing with that right now.
