Question for Dr. Bob

Posted by Bekka H. on March 23, 2002, at 23:38:15

Hi Dr. Bob,

I hope you had a good vacation and/or conference.

My question is this: Psychobabble is part of a study. Most studies have a beginning and an end due to grants, funding, etc. So, what happens to Psychobabble when you have completed your study? If you complete your study and decide to end Psychobabble, I might have to spend the next twenty years "on the couch," working through my feelings of abandonment.

Thanks, it was a vacation, and I did have a good time -- partly because Mark H. was kind enough to fill in for me here. Thanks again, Mark!

Well, this site doesn't depend on grants for funding. Besides, being a study is secondary, anyway. The main idea is to provide a resource. It's only considered a study because I want to be able to write about it.

Maybe out of "selfish altruism"?
