    I am working at Jefferson Lab on an experiment to measure GEN at higher momentums (Q^2) than ever before.

    It actually isn't going the best right now, but I think that everything is working now and data will be analyzable later.

      Isn't that what's always said right before the monster breaks out of the lab and goes on a rampage?!

          Well... we are halfway through the experiment, and have already finished collecting data on lower two Q^2 points.

          So yeah, those data points aren't going to be the nicest to analyze.

            Like lasers. I remember way back to when they were invented. The focus of the stories was that they'd be the new Buck Roger's deathrays. No one guessed they'd be turned into supermarket scannners and would be used for eye surgery.
            I'm awake now. Buck Rodgers instead of Star Trek? That would make you about 10 years older than me.

            Now that I'm up, finding practical applications for quantum mechanics is a favorite subject of mine.

                we use quantum mechanics often...

                      Where's your Jefferson Lab located? I have a Jefferson Lab not too far from where I live

                          You're about 10 miles down the road from me, then. I'm in Williamsburg. I'm attending law school at W&M. Small world, huh?

                            yep, once my experiment is over, if you want to meet for dinner or coffee or a drink that would be cool

                              That'd be cool.

                                I'm excited about theoretical physics. Really anything theoretical is cool though, because they can get away with alluding to outrageous stuff and because its all theroy its cool.

                                Psychology is where its at though. Neuropsych gets a bit boring though, as it focuses mainly on neurons, nad axon terminals, and chemistry and lots of stuff that I'm not good at.

                                The sciecen of shoppng. That is where the really cool stuff is. Read Paco Underhill's book, "Why We Buy: The Science of Shopping" I'm about halfway through it, and everytime I go into a store I always end up noticing something totally amazing about my natural behavior, or that of another customer.

                                For instance, most Americans, when wandering a store, have the tendency to move to the right. For Aussies its the left. Paco says that this is because of what side of the road we drive on, and where offramps are.
