This evening I went along to a presentation about iTunes U. I was accompanied by a couple of the more, eh, radical members of the department and we had a good laugh, not to mention free alcohol, rather un-filling canapés and a discussion on why wild pig was on the menu for a certain vegetarian but calamari isn't.
But, besides your correspondent managing to score a rather splendid freebie, the highlight of the evening was a certain member of the department proclaiming in a loud voice,
The number of people doing anything in science (at USyd) is very limited.
Laugh? I had to help myself to more cauliflower soup.

I am confused by the cauliflower soup reference.
But do tell - what was the freebie? An iThing of some sort?

Actually, I don't get most of this post. I was under the impression that BK is seen as a beacon on scientific illumination in an otherwise gloomy and unlit landscape.
