I just got back from lunch with the winners of the Monday Molecule/Nobel Laureate quiz. The two winners were Alex Ling and Dave Schuller. Alex is a student at the University of Toronto. Unfortunately he had to rush off to a class before I could get my camera ready. Maybe I can borrow the photo that Dave took and post it later on.Dave Schuller is an X-ray crystallographer from Cornell working in the group that manages the synchrotron [MacCHESS]. He decided to drive up from Cornell this morning to have lunch with us. Right now he's on his way back with a stop at McMaster University in Hamilton. Maybe that's why he looks a little dazed in the picture.
Dave brought me a mastodon from the Natural History Museum at Cornell. He also brought me some Bible Flash Cards so I can practice memorizing my Bible Stories. Here's an example ....Q: Where did God ask Abraham to go?
A: Isreal, but it took 25 years of traveling to get there.
Some of the other questions were much more difficult. How many of you can remember how Ruth cared for Naomi or where the Last Supper was held? I didn't know the answer to those ones but thanks to Dave Schuller I do now.
