@CE: I see, Certainly something that is important. Good for us your such a workoholic.

C Elegans · Post by **C Elegans** » Tue May 28, 2002 6:24 pm

@Dot: Well, I figure I could perhaps do some useful work since I do find these kind of issues important

On the workaholic note, I was welcomed home by a mail from my prof, informing me that I must write a letter to the editors of a scientific journal to our meeting tomorrow. Great - that's why I'm still not asleep although I went up 8 am this morning.

So, what have you been up to? How is school going?

Dottie · Post by **Dottie** » Tue May 28, 2002 6:29 pm

So I shouldnt really be talking to you then? It would be a shame if I obstructed any great scientific discoveries.

I've been walking around in stockholm for the last couple of days. And the school is as good as done for this season, the only thing left is the make sure Im allowed there next season as well.

Bah, it's mostly the flaws in my experiments that obstructs great scientific discoveries

Besides, I have an excellent multi-task ability

Walking around in town sounds nice, I bet it was a lot warmer here than it was in the outer Archipelago.

So school in finished already? What are the requirements for continuing after the summer?

PS You're doing well, have you studied DW intensly?

Hope its nothing to serious.

Probably, Unfortunatly.

That I tell them I want to, so its not that difficult.

She is using that hide feature wich makes it abit more difficult. I cant peep as much as I would like to, Perhaps you could convince here to turn it off.

C Elegans · Post by **C Elegans** » Tue May 28, 2002 6:55 pm

Nah, I mostly kidding, there's nothing wrong with my experiements - I hope.

I certainly think you will be able to live up to their requirements then

I'll try to convince her - both DW and Georgi use the hide mode, must be to prevent all their admirers from pestering them

Dottie · Post by **Dottie** » Tue May 28, 2002 7:00 pm

They need to know by tomorrow so there is no guarantees.

Yes, But now that its an order from you they must surely understand. Whats their privacy worth when compared to my social education.

C Elegans · Post by **C Elegans** » Tue May 28, 2002 7:13 pm

LOL

You can also view it this way: When they post, you can observe their behaviour, whereas when they are lurking but not posting, they do not demonstrate any social behaviour. Thus, it doesn't matter that they are in hidden mode.

I suspect you are just trying to use this situation as an excuse to check in Georgi and DW more closely than is necessary for your social education

I'm finished with the letter, so now I'm hitting the sack.

Good night Dottie and all lurkers out there

Dottie · Post by **Dottie** » Tue May 28, 2002 7:16 pm

Tss, Threwing around such completly unfounded speculations arent like you at all CE. You just cant take any chances with this.

Night.

Welcome back, CE, glad to hear your conference went well.*hug*

LOL

I can see it now, why does the Time Machine suddenly spring to mind

@Sleep: Unfortunately this organisation only provides debunking of claims related to science, not to politics - they would need a few thousand full time working members to address the problem you aim at

LOL

they would undoubtedly end up diluted into a committee that was all talk and no actual function, staring into the abyss and all that

What sort of science do you study, Oh Chemically Inclined One? (I suppose I could be bothered to find your post in the anatomy thread, but I'm opting for the easy and more sociable way out...)

That's why I figured Dottie could learn something from you

Maybe he could, but do you think he should?
