# I went down to the woods today. And bumped into a racist scientist
(I helped save b3ta! 4Q just lurking, Sun 12 Aug 2012, 2:22, archived)
# Did you get a big surprise?
I believe it's traditional...

# yes
see below

# That has to count as giving
rather than getting a big surprise doesn't it?

# It would have been both
in over a year, I have never seen anyone else in these particular woods.
I feel compelled to explain, I'm not some terrible exhibitionist - I really hadn't expected to see anyone else for miles. I just wanted a nice tan.

# So who spotted you?
(I helped save b3ta! Mu Dinofiddler, Sun 12 Aug 2012, 2:37, archived)
# No-one, in the end.
But the person who nearly did was, sadly, in no way hot. Or female.
So it wasn't much like the movies, which was a shame.

# Tell you what, folks
I am a scientist and, as not just a scientist but as a theoretical physicist, I can confirm that while I'm not a particular fan of his, Brian Cox is certainly a scientist and that Manchester - while one may or may not agree that it is a shithole; personally I rather like the city - is definitely a real city.

It's either that or I am suffering some entertainingly realistic psychoses.

# so...
where do you do your science?
(I helped save b3ta! real i'm not happy 'til you're not happy, Sun 12 Aug 2012, 11:23, archived)
# norway
previously, germany. previously, britain. simple answer, simple question.

or if i take you figuratively, IN MY BRAIN. yeah.

# As a scientist, I mostly concur.
Having never seen anything with Brian Cox in it.

# I wouldn't particularly recommend him
He knows what he's talking about and he's good at explaining it, but to get there you have to watch him flying off to some tenuously-connected remote location so that he can crouch down and shout it against the wind.

No-one quite knows why he feels this is necessary, nor why his production company feel it's worth the expense. One suspects that being married to a producer - who, I believe, is involved in this production company - is something to do with it.

# Ah, I bet he still travels less than my curent boss, though.
Especially considering my boss has no results to report, yet still gets to go to every conference going and has lots of "invited" lectures to give.

# It's the perk of being a professor
You don't do any work, you can blame your postdocs/students for any mistakes, but give all the plenary talks and claim all the plaudits in nice cities, without even spending any of your own grant.
