Is a blogger and synthetic organic chemist in Barry Trost's group at Stanford. He has successfully e-panhandled his way to an iPod. He will not be blogging anymore starting in a couple days (presumably because it's dissertation time for him). This also means his blog will only be publicly accessible for another month. If you haven't yet, check out the blog of the guy who readers loved enough to toss a couple hundred bucks his way (an audience comprised largely of similarly impoverished grad students, I'll bet).
(He will also be destroying his old, broken ipod with assorted cleaning reagents and solvents. Probably worth keeping an eye on the site over the weekend just for that. Sadly (wisely), he removed the (lithium) battery.)
