Done

I have finished my dissertation for the last time. I have permissions for images, final edits, footnotes and bibliography fixed, acknowledgments written, and images properly inserted. Tomorrow I shall print and do a final check, then get my advisors to sign it in approval.

The dissertation is 442 pages long. pied_piper70 guessed that it would be 440 pages long, so he wins a copy of the bound thesis. Congrats!

As I've said before, thanks to everyone who has supported me over the years. Coming soon: Getting a job, writing an article, turning the thesis into a book, marrying Shannon, and raising a baby. And that's just this coming 12-month period (except for the book. I get about 24-36 for that, depending on how much extra research I have to do).

I demand a recount!

It turns out that there was a formatting problem with my thesis. I have now fixed it, and the dissertation has grown exactly 12 pages longer.

I will still give a copy to pied_piper70, at 440.
However, minnehaha K., guessed 452. The thesis is now 452 pages long. Congrats to K.!
