No Ken and it cost me a fortune for a nice bound research book. I showed my small kids where it lives at Monash Uni when I went there for a visit. I am tempted to try for a PhD but after a strong cup of tea, the feeling generally goes away. Two decades ago I was a research scientist with Orica, you'll probably laugh if you knew what division I worked in. Catch me over a beer one day.<br>
<br>Seriously though, I have enormous respect for those on this list that have done the hard years and extended their studies to undertake some serious PhD research and work at the cutting edge of teaching. I just spent all of today doing work for VicRoads for a paper I'll probably publish with STAV about an Engineers in Schools program that I ran last year. Am also editing a video of this work. It is enough to keep me distracted. <br>
<br>Has anybody else on this list got a research interest?<br><br>Regards Roland<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 25 March 2010 09:05, Kent Beveridge <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:kbeveridge@stbc.vic.edu.au">kbeveridge@stbc.vic.edu.au</a>></span> wrote:<br>

tossed in a citation from the UN International Charter of Human Rights to fill a spot in my reference list (not quite the same as our local legislative brew folks!) ..

- sections of the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities Act 2006<br>
- Parts of the Spam Act 2003<br>

It's also interesting to see protocols are back in the Key Knowledge for networking after a 4 year layoff. I'm glad. I liked protocols.
<br>
Topologies are still missing, however.<br>

Sadly, the familiar 56bps modem has been removed from the study design after an 8 year run.<br>
