Too bad Janko didn't have this guy's foresight (or sense of humor). His postmortem confessions might have been a lot more entertaining than his miserable life.
Then again, perhaps that's how his Loyola PhD attempt went south. The girl working the counter no doubt immediately recognized he was an asshole and put his dissertation proposal in the rejected stack.

Obituary
...Now that I have gone to my reward, I have confessions and things I should now say. ... I really am NOT a PhD. What happened was that the day I went to pay off my college student loan at the [regionally accredited] U of U[tah], the girl working there put my receipt into the wrong stack, and two weeks later, a PhD diploma came in the mail. I didn't even graduate, I only had about 3 years of college credit. In fact, I never did even learn what the letters "PhD" even stood for. For all of the Electronic Engineers I have worked with, I'm sorry, but you have to admit my designs always worked very well, and were well engineered, and I always made you laugh at work.
