You can take the X-men scubscription away from the girl...

Oh dear, I knew it was all going too well. I realised this morning that if I went on the way I'd been going, the dissertation was going to end up about 25,000 words. Since I only have 15,000 to play with, something's gotta go and I think it's most of the reading I've been doing in the wonderful Duke Humfrey's library. *sigh* It's not exactly a waste of 3 days, as it all forms background, but it is annoying as it's much more interesting than the myriad articles about the new library, which all say more or less the same thing. Back to the drawing-board, I guess. I shall just have to wait and write those articles I've been thinking about. Apparently I'd rather be a library historian than a librarian, except I don't think they pay you for doing that...

But to cheer myself up, I found and have requested from the stacks a journal article by a certain "R Lebeau". It's too much to hope that he might be a Remy (and only about 4 of you are going to get that reference anyway) but it made me smile :D

Bonus points for quoting R. Lebeau and with the French connection I'm tempted to ask if there is any mention of kinetic energy anywhere...just to make the coincidence super creepy...

Sadly the Lebeau article isn't in the French book - even I might have been slightly creeped at that point :)

I'll let you know on the kenetic front...
