Mid-day Update
Posted by Derek
I know I have some people stopping by to see how the experiments I described on Saturday have turned out. Well, the runs that I did late last week were not kind to the instrument they ran through, so one of my colleagues is now trying to get the machine back to its usual state. I'm ready to go as soon as things look normal, which could be this afternoon. If not, I'll put everything in the freezer and we'll run 'em tomorrow. And yes, the suspense is getting to me.

Still holding out for you on vial #33, Derek, although my wife gave me the bad news this weekend that Latrobe Brewing is being sold to Anheuser-Busch (for the uninitiated, the "33" legend is described in the last pgh of link). Let's hope you have better luck than the poor workers or, to look at it another way, that the contents of the vial move up the development/supply chain!

I especially like how the article portrays the beer as being trendy, when it was one of the cheapest that you could get at penn state. One of the local bars, www.theskeller.com, was famous for selling cases of pony bottles (9 oz?) of rolling rock. It is a shame that rolling rock had to sell out.
Good luck Derek.

The instrument is still down, and needs a part which has to be shipped from England. At least another week will pass until the samples can be analyzed.
