    An 89-year-old man in Rhode Island has earned his Ph.D. and became a physicist after working toward it for two decades and thinking about it for a lifetime. Manfred Steiner recently successfully defended his dissertation at Brown University in Providence. http://apne.ws/clot3Uv pic.twitter.com/mgfBkptGkZ

        "Thinking about it for a lifetime." How many of our dreams could be described that way?

        Considering how long it takes to get tenure do you think this pursuit was fruitful?

        Sometimes the pursuit itself makes everything worth it. Not necessarily the practicality.
