"It's sad to say this but most people I work with are just not that into science. It's not that they're not good at it - they clearly are - it's just that they're interested only in their little niche, and are thoroughly satisfied with all that it entails."

High-school teaches take parabolic flights to simulate low gravity and impress their students. Somebody named Grover Whitehurst is a soulless grouch.

"We have on our evaluation form (which is filled with useless questions) the following question:
Agree-Disagree: Instructor starts and ends class on time (1 - Strongly disagree....6 - Strongly agree)
I pick this question because it has a definite answer. Essentially, everyone should agree on this answer (including the instructor). For the past few years, I have been very careful to EXACTLY start and end class on time (and I mean down to the exact second). It has kind of become a game of mine. So, everyone should agree with the starting and ending class question, right? Well, no. I don't get 6's on this question. The scores I get are similar to the scores for the more subjective questions. Odd."
