Cracking the Books

The post-Star Wars day has been wonderfully covered by the other posters, but i had to throw this last thing in for v. near the end of the night, we went on a quest to infiltrate the MIT library in search of something no human has ever laid eyes on before outside of boston: vinson lee's master's thesis in hardcopy!!! would i be the 1st? would it ever be checked out?! we ran to the dusty barker library (with it's non-functional AC but free internet =) on the 5th floor, made our way up winding stairs fighting cobwebs and dust to the 8th floor searching for the electrical engineering thesis stacks. of course, v's last name had to be lee. how unique for an engineer in mit... grrrrr... but we found the right year (2003)... we found the appropriate bound collection of dead plant material.. and voila:
