Folkies are too quick to blame their equipment, because it is easier than admitting they don't know how the printer that has been there for years actually works.

When I started I was just a young whippersnapper and I go into places and have someone tell me that the problem was with the rollers, which rollers I'd ask, the rollers they'd say full of authority. I'd tell them it wasn't but they never believed me as far as anyone is concerned it was always the rollers!!

You can if you want she's locked in the garage now she wont know!

:P

All I know is... the picture had writing labelling the wells and was in the right orientation on my computer screen... then when I sent it to the printer it came out mirror imaged, the lines weren't filled and the writing just wasn't there at all... I fail to see how some stupid compatability issue with office 2007 and the printer drivers has anything to do with me being a retard like such people you are referring to.



Anyway I handed it in 6 minutes to 2 (the deadline) so it's done and dusted and I'm now just trying to waste time so that I don't have to go back in to the lab until tomorrow... although I do miss it... my poor Gilson's must be so lonley.

Gilson's, who is he is he your little lab pet you keep under your bench?

No, that's esteban and Max, my lil pet antibiotic-resistant funghi that I have growing on some plates on the bench... Gilson's are the calibrated automatic pipettes of choice.

Ok 17 days to find a girlfriend - or just a girl that want to do a little experiment

Aren't they called Gilson's whether they are calibrated or not? Oh well I maybe I should calibrate my Gilson's soon as my protein assay gave strange results today.

What equipment is that then?!

His time was about three seconds flat then he rolled over ,farted and fell asleep she.s still on the course with a look of huge disappointment
I think shes booked him some lessons down at the local athletics club ,now dont quote me on this but it was either for the long jump or did i get it wrong and he was for the high jump! Hmmm.......

MR C!!!!!! A most welcome return! ( or have you been on elsewhere and I've missed the posts?). People were worried, you know.
