    OMG! I recently re-read my MA Thesis -- it was worse than I had remembered! Imperial Purple: I talk about snails & Pliny the Elder's Natural History; I talk about the modern-day Lebanese cities of Tyre & Sidon, and their respective red-purple/blue-purple snails; it does not get 'sexy' until I launch into the Dye for making Purple-Glass, and relative pricing.
    "Imperial Purple textile dye is the costliest substance in Antiquity" versus "Manganese
    Dioxide (MnO2) comes from literal dirt."

      @@Reziac One of your Chemistry Colleagues, Chris Cooksey?, was extremely kind to me, a lowly MA student, 20-some years ago. I think he must have been amused because I was approaching Purple from an unexpected viewpoint. He was kind & very supportive of my Thesis. (Thank you, Chemists! 🥰)

    Crazy you can still make that defense after all these years and the rest of your research. This deserves many more views.

    Stepping through the logic of your doctoral thesis was interesting stuff. And as soon as you pointed out that the trend was not linear... dang, that's self-evident, and here's the data!

    Had, very interesting and I could understand it at some level. Another but equivalent to the concave model is introducing a confident factor that increases as a choice survives more attributes and adds to the independent attributes advantage 36:21 . I think this is how my brain works. :)

    So, just for the record, was it your thesis advisor, or the thesis defence committee, which recommended the patented Saad Underdesking Technique™ ? Inquiring minds want to know!
