So we moved around at work, like a wierd game of musical cubicles and now no one can find each other.
Someone finally found one of my coworkers and Bruce suggested we get signs like at the grocery store for the cubicle aisles
"Cookies, Bruce, Kerry..."

English students drive me nuts. Really, they do.

Q: Why is the name of the Institute that developed the Voigt-Kampff test important?
A: The Pavlov Institute and I don't know

I DON'T KNOW?!?
I mean, I don't expect them to be familiar with all of scientific history, which is why I've been conned into delivering a short lecture on Quantum Physics (how I got to be the resident expert on that, I still don't know), but Pavlov proved conditioning works.

I am in a Science Fiction class with people who have no concept of the science.

"Well, it's not like there are plants that eat people..." well...
"Well, it's not liek there are plants that walk..." well...
"Well, it's not like there are A.I.'s walking around..." well...

The problem with those statements is that they are mostly true, and everyone (in my class) thinks they are utter nonsense.

Lecture for next thursday:

The effects of travelling at the speed of light on time and relative time
and
The Expanding Universe.

That should take me 5 minutes.
