*beams* thanks :)

he's fun to work with - and he knows what he's doing when it comes to writing for the info sys community. a good supervisor/colleague indeed.

See! I was right - anything more than a couple of days spent writing these things is overkill. :)

There's a small monetary award (note the "small"). The policy is that it cannot be given to the university - it is for the winner/s to spend.

8D

spending much more time on the paper was not really posisble anyway, since we did the usual thing of waiting 'til the last minute - nothing like a deadline to focus the mind :) [besides we'd hashed out the thing over the previous month or so anyway.]

oh, did i just give away the secret to our success?

i figure we could use the money for a nice lunch or sommat ... [i figured it wasn't a huge cash prize :)]

but the bar has been set pretty high for my next paper ... and it'll have to be a substantive one ... they can't all be tales of high adventure in the classroom ...

The prize is about $500. I'm inclined to say that it's all yours, but Su suggested that we should buy toys. That she gets to see. Like helicopters. :)

Congratumulations. You have won the respect and approval of your fellow academics. And some free candy, probably :)

I saw Saturday's Sinfest and figured this is also so you:

I have several of the previous Criminy 'toons up at the entrance to my cubicle. He may not be my hero, but he's a lot like me :)
