Re: Ideas for M.A. thesis in Cognitive Science



My guess is that most people who would have what this person asked for, that
is, a really good MA thesis etc, would likely keep it to themselves, as
they'd probably want to do it.

The other reason no one likely answered is the only likely non-'No' answer
consists of ridicule for even asking the original answer... so people choose
to remain silent.
