My ME guide was a prolific publisher. God in one year in my Masters he gave me 12 publications!!!!! He had a PhD student. Now a PhD post 4 years is a dangerous man for both the prof and all other poor people arnd him...IISc is notorious for keeping PhDs for a looooong time. There was a poor guy who had published every which place nd still has taken close to 9+ years for his degree...
Nyways comin back to my profie's PhD student.....Poor fellow. He went to him with a doubt in a paper nd showed him the title and the formulae...the usual crap. My prof saw the paper up-down left right...nd then told him
Prof: I dont understand this. Whose paper is this contact the authors....
Student: Which authors?????
Prof: The first author...
Student: Sir does not respond
Prof:K. Second author
Student: Sir, email bounces
Prof: K, third author
Student: Sir, u r the third author
Prof: God damn this is my paper. Hmmm.I still dont understand.....
God help research!!!!!!!
