In Finland defences are public, so people go along to listen, and judge the performance of the examiner.  I suggested (and this is the bit I&#8217;m not sure I was serious about) that someone could live-blog the defence.  To my surprise this was taken seriously, and Cano volunteered to do it.<br \/>\nSo, from about noon our time (that&#8217;s 10am GMT), Cano will (hopefully!) be <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.helsinki.fi\/egru-blog\/\">live-blogging the defence at the EGRU blog<\/a>.  I might join in over here, I haven&#8217;t decided yet.  I wonder if we can persuade him to live-blog the party afterwards.<br \/>\nAnd, for those of you who can&#8217;t wait, here&#8217;s a <a href=\"http:\/\/masksoferis.wordpress.com\/2008\/12\/11\/my-global-warming-predictions\/\">silly blog post about global warming<\/a>.  I don&#8217;t know who the writer is, he seems to be a student in my department.
