Beth the chemist would like to take this opportunity to formally
register a protest against the use of the word "chemical" as a
pejorative, on the grounds that it degrades her honorable profession.
We chemists are at enough of a social disadvantage without that. And
may I point out that most chemists are sensible enough to complete our
education while still young, so that we don't have to write papers at an
advanced age.
*ouch* Bruce, quit smacking me!

Yo Powderposse,
Wouldn't CHEMICAL ALI be an excellent name for a rapper?
And who bequeathed upon said dude such a high and mighty handle?
And guess who has 4 papers due next week and is procrastinating like
jack?
