Jan. 18th, 2011 08:16 pmI am up to my eyeballs in two separate projects which are both due Friday, hence the content-less updates (usually done over a meal) and extreme lack of replying to email, but all in all it's very exciting!
One of my projects sent me on a reference hunt over the weekend, and the search term "alcohol blast-lamp" found me THIS:
The Oesper Collections in the History of Chemistry, University of Cincinnati
A whole library of fantastic items from labs in the bygone days of yor-e-gon-e-bye! Each item has a rotating photo! There's a virtual tour of a c.1900-10 chemistry lab! MY EYES! IT'S TOO AWESOME!! AAAAAAAaaaaaaauuuuugh!
And if you can guess what project it is that I was researching, you get a shiny gold star. I should be back to "normal" by Monday (by which I mean, of course, taking forever to reply to email for no good reason at all).
So awesome...
