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?
