object of desire

We wants one of these. What's really cool is that they'll etch one with any PDB ID you care to give them.

How utterly awesome is that?!

As cool as they are, we have about 6-7 sitting around our house as "gifts" from my husband's job, with random airplane jet engines or entire airplanes or helicopters suspended inside. One chunk of crystal is nice, but many just collect dust and no one looks at them anymore.

Not to dampen your enthusiasm.

Pah, it's a measly 45 quid for the small one. I'm sure there's room in your boss's research grant for that...

That is very cool. But ~80 bucks is a bit heavy on the sauce, not to mention way over the pressie price limit for the family secret santa this year.

Maybe I can cite a need for a paperweight and stick it on the PI's grant...

About the Rat

Black Knight is interested in the interaction of science (as a day job and as a way of thinking) with his family, the wider community and literature. And tormenting students. Frequently polemical, sometimes serious, and hopefully always entertaining more
