When I was in grad school, I spent 6 months in the "stacks" looking for a project that would compliment my advisor's previous work. I came to him with a proposal, and he basically said it wouldn't work and I didn't have a clue. Well, 14 refered publications later ( could have written another 3, but time was running out) and a couple without his name, I think I proved a couple of points: my ego was bigger than his, and I don't like being called stupid.

If you think you're right, fuck 'em.
