Scientists occasionally invent alternative periodic table layouts, which is usually a sign that they don't have enough enrichment in their enclosures.

I love taking a Kindle to a club and reading in a corner. I'll never get more than 10 minutes into my book before one of the nicer and quieter lads asks if he can buy me a drink. We'll generally go somewhere quieter so we can discuss literature.

I've just completed the Warlock of Firetop Mountain for the first time without cheating. This was an impossible task in 1983. I'm now 51 and rather proud of myself. Freeway Fighter next.

I don't care about my citation number (which is good, because it's small haha), but I can't deny it's satisfying when someone I've never met before cites me, clearly understood my work, ran with a concept from the paper and discovered something new themselves. Just like I did with studies I cited! Sometimes science works!

Researchers working on Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) won the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. The latest edition of #PeriodicGraphics in C&EN looks at applications of MOFs, including water harvesting, gas storage, and more: https://cen.acs.org/materials/metal-organic-frameworks/mof-metal-organic-framework-adsorption/104/web/2026/03

I once stopped my car and let an old man cross the road. The only reason I did was because he had the best moustache I'd ever seen in my life and I wanted to get it on my dash cam!

When an eel has a maw
with a pharyngeal jaw,
that’s a moray.

When the jaws open wide
and there’s more jaws inside,
that’s a moray.

When it skulks in a reef
and has two sets of teeth,
that’s a moray.

When an eel bites your thigh
and you bleed out and die
that’s a moray.

I've decided I want to be buried with my HP 12C financial calculator. I've had it since 1982, which is longer than I've had my family. It has never failed me, annoyed me, or put demands on me. It is my friend, and I don't want it going to the trash once I'm gone.
