@JohnNCoupland Have you read "Down and Out in Paris and London" by Orwell? I would expect similar themes and ideas even though it's set in the 30s.

@Chemjobber Great teams have great chemistry, so this is quite logical. Go 'Canes!

@JohnNCoupland Not sure that oxtail qualifies as offal, although I think a lot of people would consider it as such. Too bad for them, wonderful for me as it is very tasty.

I'm not able to blog like I use to, but I do write twice a month at Plastics Today.

I'm really excited about my latest: the shocking reason that plastics degrade and show up everywhere.

@stuartcantrill Can't wait to see the mnemonic for this.

@ChemistryKit He has a state park in Wisconsin named after him. The state has a very difficult time keeping the "Bong State Park" signs from being stolen.

@YSPTSPS theology. Case in point: that's supposed to be rheology

[John Spevacek @jaspevacek]

@andrechemist Yes, but you still break your feet when you step on the full sized bricks stumbling around on the dark.

@CranfordMATTER Having lived through polywater, cold fusion, buckyballs, and a whole slew of "publicity first, repoducibility second" announcements, I'm plenty tainted. Take care of the science and then publicity will take care of itself.

@JohnNCoupland John, I'm on the road right now, but will be back home on Thursday. I can answer you then

@heydebigale @Twitter What do you think would happen for somebody that is always lye-ing?

[John Spevacek @jaspevacek]

@ChemistryKit But the taste like chicken.

[John Spevacek @jaspevacek]

@pauldauenhauer Sorry, but the name brings up way too many bad memories from the U of M Hall named after him. That was 40 years ago, and the thoughts of the arrogant, cruel profs still scares and hurts.

@KamatlabND Have you got a modem collection coming next? Dial up, with the headset holder, and maybe some audio files too?

[John Spevacek @jaspevacek]

@JohnNCoupland We have them all enrolled in a "class" on the LMS. (Blackboard, but whatever.) Then just post announcements. They're already on the LMS. They're not always on email, something that a few are quite proud of. But since I'm proud of not being on TikTok, I guess that makes us even

@eroston It's not even a mole of joules

[John Spevacek @jaspevacek]

@NaOHBartfield With a name of NaOH Bartfield, it's pretty clear that you lye.

@connormacneil Flux capacitor. Don't you young people know anything?

[John Spevacek @jaspevacek]

@JohnNCoupland Never tried it fried, but it is excellent when grilled.
