	method for increasing the volume of a document (5 March 2003)
	Abstract A method is presented for the purpose of increasing the volume of a document without necessitating the requirement of having any more actual content. 1. Introduction The aim of this communication [1] is to explain, in as brief and concise terms as possible, the formal accepted method of making theses long enough for consideration for the degree of PhD. In the following chapter, I will explain that in order to increase the amount of material in such a document, the author must first state what they are about to say (so that the reader knows what the document is about), then say exactly what it is they have to say (so the reader can read about what the document is about), and then finally concisely summarise what the document was about (so that the reader knows what the document was about). 2. Method In order to increase the volume of a document, we first state what it is we are about to state, then state what we were going to state, and then we state that we have stated it. The formal explanation for this is as follows: The Introduction summarises for the reader what the document is about, before he reads it, so he knows what it is about. The main body of the document contains all the things that the document is actually about, so that the reader can read about what it is about. The conclusion summarises everything that has been said before, so that the reader knows what it was about after he has read it. This method significantly increases the volume of a document without necessitating the requirement to have any more actual content. 3. Conclusion It has been shown that in order to increase the volume of a document, we first state what it is we are about to state, then state what we were going to state, and then we state that we have stated it. This method significantly increases the volume of a document without necessitating the requirement to have any more actual content. It has been further shown that this increases the clarity of the document for the reader by: a) letting him know what the document is about before he reads it b) letting him know what the document is about while he is reading it c) letting him know what the document was about after he has read it The reader may, however, wonder exactly how the author managed to make the document so long, in which case the author recommends reading the references on the recommended reading references list, in particular reference [1].

	Date: Wed, 05 Mar 2003 16:15:17 +0000 From: Peter Keefe <[...]@[...].com> Subject: Re: Thesis Preface Peter Keefe applies the theorem of increasing the volume of a document without increasing its content (R A Worthington, University of Durham) to the theorem of increasing the volume of a document without increasing its content (R A Worthington, University of Durham). Foreword A summary of an application of the theorem of increasing the volume of a document without increasing its content (R A Worthington, University of Durham) to the theorem of increasing the volume of a document without increasing its content (R A Worthington, University of Durham). Introduction A method has been presented of increasing the volume of a document without actually increasing the level of content in the document. In this discussion, we apply the method of the method to the method. Background There exists a need for increasing the volume of a document without actually increasing the level of content in the document. Application The method is particularly suitable for theses, legal documents, and anywhere else that it is not the interest to make the document readable to anyone. Introduction to The method The method comprises the steps of Abstract, Introduction, Method, and Conclusion. In this method, this method, comprising these steps, will be applied to a method for increasing the volume of a document without actually increasing the level of content in the document. The Method Abstract A method is presented for the purpose of increasing the volume of adocument without necessitating the requirement of having any more actual content. 1.

References [1] This communication (e-mail, 5 March 2003) Result The volume of the document can be seen to have increased without the actual level of content of the document having increased. Conclusion The method of increasing the volume of the document without actually increasing the level of content in the document was applied to a method of increasing the volume of the document without actually increasing the level of content in the document, and from the results it can be seen that the volume of the document was increased without actually increasing the level of content in the document.
