Vunderboor, another lucky contitstant!

Here is Doc_M's response to his roast questions. Use it for ammunition.

1. What do you do when you are not at the computer?
Work... usually in the lab. Otherwise, music, tae kwon do, golf, etc.

2. What is your favorite of your posted videos?
I think, either the HBO intro from the 80's for nostalgia or of course this for the shear "holy crap" effect.

I might be the only one who can say this, but 1, you're looking at it.

4. What non-self-involved site do you visit most often?
Neatorama.com and Gizmodo.com... I'm easily entertained... and a geek.

5. If you had a time machine, would you go to the future or the past? And why?
Past... very... as in millions of years.

A little from column A, a little from column B.

Vista. Oh, I'm gonna get grief for this one...

9. Would you most prefer to be involved in a monumental one-of-a-kind hiking expedition, working on a breakthrough cure for a debilitating illness , or presenting the discovery of a revolutionary new way to parse data?
How about finding a breakthrough cure for a debilitating illness while on a monumental one-of-a-kind hiking expedition? Heck, Ventnor is all about that kinda stuff... granted, he's kinda on the rich side.

Peanuts

Rosemary or perhaps turmeric.

I used to have fish. They never told me their names.

Nay, but I once killed a man with my bare hands ... ok, that's not true, but if it were, that'd be far more interesting.

18. What’s your go-to move for making a good first impression?
Good old fashioned confidence is a powerful thing.

by way of preliminary clrification-are you a bonafide doctor as in Phd,S.O.B., yadda yadda, or simply a lap rat poker, as it were...I'd hate to think there were any, electrodes on shaved rodent heads we need to know about-though I have no problem subjecting the little fuckers to all manner of inconvenience for the common good of the species....and on acounnta they spread disease and scare wimmin' in ways I never could-....little bastards, they can survive longer and thrive in all manner of conditions better than me as well-

^I'm a Ph.D. student. Probably a year to go. I avoid working with animals. Sometimes it is unavoidable, and technically everything we do uses something that was from an animal, e.g. antibodies. Also, cell culture uses serum from cow blood. Sadly, you just can't do biology without animals.

no apologies necessary
