    Aquitaine Is What It IS! But NEVER BORED!

    I did NOT do well in Chemistry class a Gazillion years ago, and don't expect I'd do any better today, but I WILL take notes (NOT that I will EVER read them again):D:D

    Edit: But the fruit is beautiful!!!

    I loved the sciences, but I also loved languages and English Lit. It does surprise me how much I can still haul out of my memory. ;)

    The thing is, do you wince at the ignorant and inappropriate use of scientific terms. Like silicon for silicone.

    Oh, af, indeed I do wince. There's assorted common usages that bring out the science geek in me, and that's one of them.
