It is, isn't it? I'm glad her nephew inquired on her behalf...and who knew there was such a specification? She could've gotten the diploma long ago...

Those are fantastic animal pictures. I stan the hazel dormice in their secret lair.

About the diploma: I like the woman, I'm glad she got her diploma, and I think it's horrifically sad when we take the signifiers of production and investment so much more seriously than we take the substantial, real, life-giving production and investments themselves.

True...and also, it's a pity she didn't know about the wartime provision before, she could've requested it a long time ago
