DirtyHarry Posted August 16, 2006 Posted August 16, 2006 OH! I've got a good "crazy old skool scientist" story. A guy in my department (who happens to be somewhat famous in the climbing/mountaineering community as well) was once tasked with synthesizing and purifying some metabolites to a particular drug. Rather than synthesize the stuff conventionally using organic chemistry techniques, he decided to just take the drug personally, let his liver and kidneys make the metabolites, collect his own urine, and isolate the metabolites out of it. Worked like a charm supposedly and with fringe benefits! You could really say he was "experimenting with drugs" Quote

cj001f Posted August 16, 2006 Posted August 16, 2006 I bet it was just from a round with the orbital shaker. Cxxxa Commander I'm sure that you prefer the wrist action shaker. You are confusing Cobra Commander the latin lothario with Orange Julius the science dweeb. Quote
minx Posted August 16, 2006 Posted August 16, 2006 i'm confused about lots of things but definitely NOT the fact that Cxxxa Commander is a wanker Quote

olyclimber Posted August 16, 2006 Author Posted August 16, 2006 i've reviewed the posts in this thread, and you guys need to redouble your efforts. this isn't going to pass quality control, and you should consider your jobs to all be in danger of being replaced by robots or untrained chimps. Quote
minx Posted August 16, 2006 Posted August 16, 2006 oly--i've been saying for years that a moderately trained chimp could do my job. you can take this job and shove it. now i'm bitter and hostile. Quote
