Martin Sorry that is an in-joke about academics, but could I suppose it may apply to other situations as well. It hinges on the philosophical version of 'project' (not Andy's collaborative project). There is a strong disparity between what academics do and what they would like to do (lock out the students, and do some writing), that this is where the joke came from. So, I should have sent it to you personally, sorry.
