Dr. Joe Willet in his robes.

With a leather bound tome in the boot of the car and parchement firmly in hand, the scarlet hood and PhD gown, Joe can, at last believe what he has achieved.

His thesis, entitled:

Chronic renal allograft failure: The sequestration and activation of latent TGF-b on renal epithelia.

is a masterpiece of gobble-de-gook for the layman, but a very useful piece of work for scientists trying to unravel the mystery of transplant failure.

A tear in the eye.

The champagne gave me heartburn.
