I’m not sure if they are trying to tell me something, but two friends have independently emailed me to say that Queen guitarist Brian May has completed the PhD thesis he started in 1971. Read about it here…
OK, I’ve been going for a while, but I’m not that extended!
And anyway, how much do you reckon the physics of interplanetary dust might have changed in 30 years? I mean, how much additional research did he have to do, I wonder…

Congrats to Dr May! I suspect it will be hard for him to convince the music-buying masses that his best work is yet to come, and it is in the field of pure science.
John, I’m sure your friends are not wanting to apply any pressure. All will be forgiven if you also become a rock god with over a dozen classic albums before you complete the thesis. (insert smiley)

Not on your life, Laurie. The rock god days are behind him. At least until he finishes the thesis, or starts turning a profit from the music.
