I'm going to throw out a bunch of new topics here on the books I've read to try and seed some new discussions. :D

I added some older book threads from the Everything Else and Your So-Called Life forums too - feel free to reply to those as well!

You could have sex with me if you really want to help...I guess that's a "no"?

Interestingly at last year's Christmas party, some drunken guests in our lab saw some stuff I had written on the whiteboard and labelled my handwriting "inhuman." Apparently it was too legible for science people accustomed to messy scribbling.

Well, as long as you remembered to use the Flail of Unerring Justice, I guess that's all right then.

Those PETA folks are a wacky bunch! :D
