Quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My PhD thesis, which is about finished now. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- what is your thesis topic? [/ QUOTE ] The title is "Improving the mismatch between light and single molecules using enhanced metallic nanostructures." It better have been interesting to me because I've spent like 5.5 years of the prime of my life doing it.

Formal logic. I never got into the advanced stuff, but I really enjoyed the semester I took it.
I also took a class called "The History of the Future", which studied predictions for the future from various points in history. Cool stuff. EDIT: And Journalism Ethics. I was a print journalism and philosophy double major, so combining the two was fascinating to me. And the professor was quite good. -McGee

Quantum Physics To get you started, go get a film called: "What the [bleep] do we know" [/ QUOTE ] The last like 40 minutes of that movie made me want to kill myself.
