Quick question for the academics on my friends list.

Does one thank one's advisor in the Acknowledgements?

The Grad College manual says "acknowledgements are limited to thanks for or recognition of special assistance;" I'm thanking my funding sources, my undergraduate RA, the people in the Pediatrics department who gave me access to my subjects, and my advisor's secretary, who helped me with a lot of admin stuff that isn't in her job description. Helping me is in my advisor's job description, but should I thank him anyway? I'm not sure what's generally done.

(no subject)

Now, that's what I call a productive day.

Update: John says the first three sections are good to go. He's going to look at the Discussion tomorrow afternoon or Monday morning.

If he gets to it tomorrow, I should be ready to print and copy on Monday. Holy cow.
