The Last Word
By Sally Adee | February 25, 2012 | 1 Comment
February 20 – 24
This week, Michelle bestowed upon a grateful universe the phrase “probably unpleasant but non-lethal chipmunk ear punches”
Cassie wept as a doctor sang to her awkwardly in Spanish
Ann showed us that up close, cosmological dark matter looks like poppies
Tom found the sole heir to They Might Be Giants’ science song dynasty
And Ginny channeled Joan Miro to explain, in beautiful surrealist anime, how fantastic lengths of DNA manage to coil themselves into an impossibly tiny nucleus.
Extra credit: “Before you go off to start building your apocalyptic weapon, do bear in mind two things.”
Have an awesome weekend, everyone! See you on Monday!

Re the apocalyptic weapon: now that right there is a physicist with too much time on his hands.
