You've got it. That's exactly it. So we do not have to be controlled. Slave to diptheria. Whore to ignorance in search of protection. Trapped. The more we know the less we can be lied to, by others or by ourselves.

I will marry you.

Considering where you live, yeah, you could find some crack if you had the money. Probably without lookin' too hard, either.

It's so goofy that researchers get to use this stuff on mice (with significant amounts of red tape, I'm sure), but people get sent to jail for less than the amounts you're probly using on mice. And yet at one point cocaine was in everything from medicine to soda. I watched this great documentary about how the American perception of coke has changed over the years.

Also, is that your Rod on the list of the new HHMI people? Cuz if so, I get to bore him to tears on Saturday during the ethics workshop. :) Also, Dr. Blanton's coming here in the middle of Feb. for a conference on research, in case you get a free weekend and want to say hello to him again.

Yep, that's him. Most definitely. My Rodrigo, man he works hard. I mean, he keeps up with me, and I make myself tired sometimes..

You should email me when he's around. I'm looking to come to Lubbock soon anyways for a visit. I want to ask him about my fractal idea.

BTW I bet you are an awesome teacher, you were to me! Keep kickin ass!

I will be sure to introduce myself to Rod, then. I think we've been introduced once, but I don't really remember, so I'll do it again. :)

He'll be here Feb 10-11. There's a lunch with him on the 10th and then a banquet that night, but you'd have to talk to Julie Isom about attending.

Did I tell you I'm torturing Plant Phys students this semester? :)

I'm going to all the HHMI events, so we can definitely meet at that. The easisest way to find me is that I have a lot of tattoos, which I do try to hide at HHMI stuff, but I have a tattoo of words across my knuckles. I have a hunch that I am the only HHMI fellow with a tattoo on his hands.
I'm also fat and have curly black hair.
Any friend of Kalisa's is a good person in my view.
