I appreciate the support. Afterall, I'm going where few, if any, Flutterbyarians dare to go. Generally, y'all have far too much common sense to subject yourself to these horrors.

"...you feel like you can't quit because you've already put too much time into it and, besides, you're almost done?!?"

They call that the gambler's fallacy, right?

More seriously, though, I'm still pulling for you.

I read Ruben's book a few months ago. Helped carry me through a new level of PhD Hell...

You know when you decide to do something and after a while, you feel like you can't quit because you've already put too much time into it and, besides, you're almost done?!?

I reached that point 5-6 times over the past five years. It's things like Ruben's book that pushes me through the next level.
