Day Off!
Posted by Derek
I'll be out doing non-scientific things all day, so the march of progress is going to have to lurch along without me for a bit. I'll see everyone on Monday!
And if you're in need of something to waste a bit of time on, this site will make your sense of order shudder: There, I Fixed It. It's a favorite around the Lowe household; I'm trying to turn my kids into the sorts of people who will never do any of those things.

I don't think I've seen any lab equipment submitted there yet, though.
Or perhaps people just don't survive long enough to make photographic evidence.

Come on why are you attempting to stifle your kids creative juices? While some of the "fixes" are rather silly a few show sparks of ingenuity in solving problems. Obviously you have not read the "101 uses of Duct Tape" and taken to heart to application therein.

That's it dude. I'm takin' your Ph.D. away, because anyone who feels so strongly about dirty ugly cheap fixes has clearly never been to graduate school.
