Hope for all those doctoral procrastinators out there

According to a story from the BBC, "Queen guitarist Brian May has handed in his astronomy PhD thesis - 36 years after abandoning it to join the band." May recently carried out observational work in Tenerife, where he studied the formation of "zodiacal dust clouds." May will defend on 23 August, his spokesman said. The results should be known some time shortly after that date. "If I fail I will fail big time," May said. "It will be a very public failure with all this press."
