Not really; I just want sympathy for pulling and all-nighter reading
stuff like this:

"The result of these eclectic research bases is that different
methodologies are used across different paradigms to answer the same
question."

I have only myself to blame, though, as I have put this off until the
13th hour. Myabe some instinct warned me I'd need to numb my brain
with tiredness before digging in.
