Funny Science
Quite possibly the weirdest line I've ever read in a scientific journal: ". . . the ChOx/ZnO/Au electrode is dipped in 3 ml PBS solution containing 20 ul horseradish peroxidase (HRP) . . . " - Singh et al. Applied Physics Letters. Vol. 91, pp. 063901-1 - 063901-3. 2007 (emphasis in the quote mine)

If the quote is yours, then am I to assume that this is from something that your team wrote and had published? (Horseradish???)
As I recall we got that parka for you when you were in high school- didn't it have a liner? I don't remember the blue down parka- we have 2 or 3 of them here, of various and sundry sizes- maybe we can swap one out that fits a little better.

The quote is not from something that we wrote. It was done by some group in India. I thought it was funny for the same reason that you pointed out. Who uses horseradish in experimentation?

The green parka did/does have a liner, which typically made the combination far too warm so I rarely, if ever, use it. Also, the liner doesn't go down as far and I prefer coats that come down to my thighs. The liner only comes down to my waist. I also assume that you mean that you do remember the blue down parka, not that you don't remember it.

Also, it's warm enough here at the moment that I've gone to using my black/white/red light jacket.

I guess I got confused because you said that the emphasis quote was yours (that must have been the horse radish part)
And, yes, I do remember the blue down parka- I just got carried away with my typing.
