Timelies all!
There are very few people in the lab with me this week. Not that the lab was crowded before, but now it's eerily quiet.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Am I missing something? Is there some divide in the sci fi community where one can only like sw or st?
Hey, can you freeze leek and potato soup?

Apparently if you like Star Wars you're a lightweight who's only in it for the adventure and gee-whiz, where as Trekkies are in it for the science and intercultural philosophizing. Or something.
Wow, that's just...huh?
Gah people, I am so bored - I have three things with me I could do while sitting in this waiting room, but I don't wanna.
OTOH, is there a shortage of people for jobs that trade schools train for?
Absolutely. Any discussion of reviving nuclear power or building alternate energy facilities on a large scale eventually gets to the question of "Where the hell will we get the welders?" We're missing practically a generation of machinists, instrument and controls techs and the like.
Welders! People should watch flashdance more.
Ok, I did one of things I had with me. West coasters why no chatter?

I think I went into a boredom coma.
Maybe that is what the government can do for the economy-- make places that need welders and then train welders. Like a combo of Rosie the Riveter and the WPA. I am awful sick of being an office worker. I keep looking longingly at the woman who drives around in a little cart and weeds the gardens.
