Science Humor

So, you've been working on the same area of research for way longer than you care to. You have been bored to tears by it for the last year. Then, just before you submitt your paper to a journal, you spot something funny and famillier about the structures of your chemicals....

http://pubs.acs.org/cgi-bin/abstract.cgi/inocaj/2004/43/i11/abs/ic0352250.html

.....and you can't resist putting what you realised as the illustration in the abstract

BTW, this is a real paper, so technically it should be work safe...

:D:D

Have you seen the group that made the copper nanotubes?

>carbon (C) nanotube are abbreviated to CNT
guess what they abbreviated Cu nanotubes to!

I see they still haven't fixed the inclusion complex issues tho......

[Alpinestarhero]

These are gems, keep them coming! I'll pass them onto my project supervisor, he likes a chemistry-related giggle :D

why did the white bear dissolve in water?








because it was polar

People please, since when did we move to America...

insert your missing u's with pride!

I'm doing a Project on Nanowires/Nanotubes at the moment! They are brilliant! :D

(Must find a way to include Copper Nanotubes...)

:-k yes I spotted that as well...........

hahaha I likes those

none of you seem to have noticed that the flux capacitor isnt working either!!

Call yourself a bunch of scientists? Pah :roll:

[Alpinestarhero]

my freind pointed out to me that the reaction in the report i initially posted about is in dynamic equilibrium. therefore the long tubey structure is constantly moving in and out of the dohnut shaped structure

science is fun

and spidey, do you need those flux capacitors valmorphanizing?

lol I make no claim to being a chemist, biology for me :D

duh, that IS chemstry

[missyburd]

duh, that IS chemstry

well yeah, but not through and through thankfully :p I likes it but only in moderation!
