I just want to clarify that I was simply attempting to explain the
rationale behind the "powerlessness" concept, not to endorse it. I don't

Not too long ago there were a few postings with links to "faculty/student
agreements" with respect to student contribution to research and co-authorship.
I can't seem to find them and I'm in the process of establishing some sort of
agreement to use in my lab. I'd appreciate it if someone out the

behavior early in the process depends on a recognition and acknowledgement that
a problem is developing. Of course, the usual course that an developing addict
take is one of denial in the first place.

Sorry, I don't accept that attitude from my students; I will certainly
not accept it from my colleagues (no matter what degree they have
earned. A degree doesn't give you license to be irresponsible); and I
don't expect my colleagues to accept that attitude from me.

Michael,
When you make such an assertion, you really should be able to (in fact,
in a way, it is your responsibility) provide a specific academic
reference. It is my recollection (although I could be wrong) that
LeVay's work makes no mention of differences at the level of the corpus
callosum.

Much of what Paul discusses below can be used as examples in class
