I'm thinking about writing my final research paper on some aspect of bicycles and bicycling. I am having a bit of a problem coming up with a "thesis" which means an argument or statement. Any ideas? Make sure you put your name on your paper or you won't get a grade. Pick a subject that benefits bicyclists... like why is riding uphill at a given power harder than riding in flatland with the same output. You must be aware that the best TT riders are often not the best hill climbers. Keep in mind he's an English major, not a physicist. A technical paper may not be the best route to a good grade, unless it's a technical writing course. Matt O. Matt, I think you missed the sarcasm that I assume was intended: Since the OP thought he needed to explain to us what a "thesis" is, the reply he got was to explain other obvious things such as "put your name on the paper" and "riding uphill is harder than riding downhill". I don't think these were intended to be actual topics for the thesis (i.e., argument or statement grin). Cheers, David |

Jobst's anathema toward anonymous posting is well known. At any rate I suppose it's advisable to sign such a formal paper with something better than "me" or ", unless "me" really is a 1st person proper noun. I don't think these were intended to be actual topics for the thesis (i.e., argument or statement grin). How on earth did erstwhile students ever get by without the help (crutch?) of UseNet? cheers, Tom -- -- Nothing is safe from me. Above address is just a spam midden.
