I'm a geochemist. My main interest is in-situ mass spectrometry, but I have a soft spot in my heart for thermodynamics, poetry, drillers, trees, bicycles, and cosmochemistry.

As far as European privacy is concerned, Google (the blogger host) probably scrapes all sorts of data about you, but I don't really have access to what they take or how they use it, so ask them.
email labhampster@gmail.com, but replace hampster with the arctic rodent after which this blog is named.

In the old blogger on the right when you download an image you selected high res (or big) for the image. You might also take a look at the html code. There may be something at the end of the string describing the image that you just snip.
Good work!
Got a "large" size readable one up, thanks.
Good work (amuzing!!!)
There you pseudoskeptics go again having a laugh at the expense of rational alternative explanations for things that the scientific consensus denies. Not very scientific is it?
Rather than deny the paranormal why don't scientists look into rational alternative explanations that could be behind the phenomena?
then at least they'd be doing real scientific work, which is discovering something new about the universe.
Please explain where rationality and consensus appear in the chart?
