Chapter 1579 Crazy Pleasures In The Dark:>Ep117

• Rick Jenson needed no introduction. He was 10 years out of his PhD and he had 11 articles, all in top 3 journals. The year when he had 2 articles, because of a timing thing, he was Researcher Of The Year, making him a megastar. His dissertation was 4 times the length of mine and he still had a few articles left in it. Rumors were that one of the tables he stuck in was a translation of his wife's ultrasound, because he took longer than she did.
• Jenson's being at this convention was more unexpected than Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters showing up at a high school battle-of-the-bands playing all the instruments himself.
• I knew two other relevant facts: Jenson was Nancy's stats teacher when she was in the PhD program, and last year he took a Fellowship with the Center that provides the data everybody uses.
