Recently retired and now partially un-retired Singapore-based research scientist and professor of cell biology. Still dabbling in biotech, molecular biology and gene therapy. Often to be found under water. Fascinated by things that fly.

Sounds like collective punishment to me. Weโre moving into Geneva Convention territory.
Several per week. Same as you. Weird thing is I retired a couple of years ago and they still keep coming.
Outstanding episode.
Not even remotely surprised.
I think that particular ship sailed quite a while ago.
๐Thatโs the first thing that popped into my mind. Iโd heard it as caught in bed with a live rent boy/dead prostitute. Anyway, sheโs not wrong.
This deserves some sort of an award ๐
Makes sense. The phone box is elf-sized.
Okay, this is quite outstanding from Bedford Council.
Thatโs what John Mitchell said.
I would include Bhattacharya. The absolute worst NIH director in my career.

I thought, perhaps naively, that the media might have moved on from this type of nonsense. It reminds me of the infamous Dorothy Hodgkin headlineโฆ Oxford housewife wins Nobel. ๐
Iโm doing my best.
