I do it with everything even after all these years in IT I still overcomplicate things when programming - not for tech sake but because it takes me a long time to see the woods from the trees - then comes the lightbulb moment

Interesting sound.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

That's one odd cat. Are we certain it was a cat with a "c" not a bat with a "b"?

I am going to exercise self control and not even consider mentioning that it is reminiscent of the sound where with (most) women phart.

WSell, I just got back from the anual Society of Petroleum Engineer's Convention in Dallasa, Tx. It was interesting in that I ran across a few Professors, who told me that my PhD Committee had met and decided that they'll make sure I graduate this semester. So that's gopod news, finally. I finished the research and writing 4 yearts ago, just still need to schedulre my defense. That should happen in the next few weeks!

No, I'll wait until after my defense to celbrate. In the mean time, I've got a couple of leads on faculty positions. That would be my ideal outcome!

Congrats with the gopod news, the gopod must be some sort of ultra secret device presumably

Its a go-pod. That is where developer who use goto can hide safely.

Only my fingers know about the gopod, the news never got to my brain.
Sorry about the typo. After my stroke it happens more than before. Makes it darn hard to write a novel!!

Don't stress, you are the source of some lighthearted chuckle for us. That can't be a bad thing now, can it? Keep typing!

Gads, I don't think I could remember enough about something I wrote 4 years ago to defend it, particularly if it were a PhD thesis.
I'm curious, is the industry stable enough that what you wrote 4 years ago is still applicable?

Yes, I developed a mathematical model of an entire oilfield, including flow in the reservoir, downhole pumps, tubing to the surface and flow in the surface piping network. I solved the partial differential equations for the physics of fluid flow numeerically in C# anmd inckluded a means to define any arbitrary flow configuratiuon and devised a general means to perform the solution for 3 phase flow to compute pressure andf temperature everyewhere. Then I used my model to compute the response in an actual field to validate the model. N
No one else has succeeded in doing that, so I know it's still the best model available and I have all my notes, so I know how I defined and built it.
Now I'm trying to decide how best to apply the model. I could try to sell it, but I think the market would be very limited. I might sell 2 or 3 coppies at most, or I can use the model to further develop the theoryt of pressure anaysis which would have wide applicatio, for emote monitoring of wells, like subsea completions and remote fields where you can't easily get data, but can easily measure surface pressure and temperature using IOT technology, etc. but gets into the mathematics of nonlinear chaotic dynamics, which would also be a new application, but sort of scary on the math side.
At any rate, the defense doesn't bother me. 2 of the professors on my commitee have already goner over my dissertation and said that they agreed that I would pass.
So now just waiting for the date to be set.
