Well, now that you mention it... :) I did base my MA thesis on the theories by the guy who won the Nobel prize in Economics last year. And that was *before* he won the Nobel prize. (My stupid supervisors didn't like/understand the thesis at first. Then when they saw Kahneman getting the Nobel prize, they changed their minds and gave me the highest grade. Idiots...) Anyway. Perhaps I should give lotto a try. :) OTOH, as the saying goes: luck in love, bad luck in games. And I'm gonna be unemployed in three weeks, so having a girlfriend to conlang with is at least something to be glad about. And unemployment gives me LOTS of free time for conlanging! Wohoo... :-/ And you don't need to worry about my appreciativeness. I'm so excited I just can't sleep. (And apparently, I'm so excited I'm quoting Britney Spears. D'oh! :) Daniel Andreasson
