Hey, Dr TreeofLife, well done. Passing with trivial minor corrections is great. It is very disappointing that your examiners were unpleasant and were grudging about it but please try not to let that get in the way of your achievement. Maybe they disagreed with what you wrote / found / did because it challenges a pet theory, maybe they were just miserable so-and-sos, but in the end your thesis and defence were good enough to survive a hostile examination and come out of the other end with few changes and that's brilliant.
