Keep fingers crossed today, guys. PhD defense coming up.

Trial lecture on "Energy consumption for alternative technologies for CO2 capture" at 1015 AM, presentation of my thesis at 1315 PM, followed by interrogation by a committee of three.

There may be some Pretty Heavy Drinking afterwards, but I'm not sure about that - I only slept four hours last night.
