這是我朋友給我的回信﹕
Thank you for the posts on bbs, and also thank those people who answered
the questions. But I don't understand what Joseph said.

Strictly
speaking, I finished the thesis in April, 2002 and passed the viva in
May, and the Graduation Ceremony was in July 2002. And the postdoc
research started in Dec 2001. Another thing is I am not the staff of the
big company, they just sponsors the postdoc project and we have meeting
regularly. I don't know whether these will affect the results, just let
you know.
I got an accident this afternoon in the lab, was hurt by broken glass.
Now everything is fine.

翻譯如下﹐大概意思是﹕
謝謝大家。但我不是很明白Joseph大大所說得意思。嚴格的說﹐我是2002年4月寫完
論文﹐5月通過答辯﹐7月畢業典禮。博後是2001年12月開始。而我並非所說的大公司
的僱員﹐他們只是資助博後研究﹐定期我們見面﹐彙報工作進展。我不知這是不是會
影響各位大大所說的結果。
今天(台灣應該是1月7日晚上12點左右)﹐我做實驗發生了事故﹐我被玻璃弄傷了。
不過現在沒事了。
