The good news is that the thorough comprehensiveness of my paper title just about slays me.
The bad news is that saying "Falling Outside the Tracks We Laid: An Exploration Through Prose, Pictures, and Film of the non Assimilation of Indian-Africans During East-African Nationalism and British Colonialism" a modest seven or so times will inevitably exhaust the twenty or so minutes i'll have to present.

Teju, What genius! Abbreviation and audience participation all at one stroke--why didn't *i* think of this before, dammit?
Nevermind, there's always recycling papers (and i don't mean recycling in an Al Gore-y fashion :).
Oh, I'm an academic myself, Zamzam, so I know ALL ABOUT recycling, nugge nudge wink wink.
Teju, YOU are my NBF (new bestest friend)!!!
Thanks.
