it's still an electric shock! stop defending your science after the fact, jim. the department protocol for research is very clear about this, and you violated the rules. i know, i know, i know that "fear and performance" is a big sexy idea, but as long as i'm chairman here you will need this department's endorsement to publish it, and right now i can't do that. and that will be a good place to end this study. not the way you've constructed your group, it's just not ethical! are you working with her? why are you working with her? mary lambretta was thrown out of the department for trying to get a ph.d. in psychic studies. you don't believe in the paranormal. does she know that's why you're using her? i, i just can't. i have a bad feeling about what you're doing. i'm gonna hate myself for this.
