Default 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...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...



Matt

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

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