Professor So-and-So?

Depends on the teacher. My grad advisor is Carlos. The grad student I've known for three years and recently became a teacher? Yea, he's Dan. The rest tend to get Dr. or Professor before their name. Once we become friends, though... I tend to go to the first name in private.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The Mr. or Dr. is so ritualized... but yea, I like it. I like the distinction between student/teacher. I always have.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
