Happy birthday J.R.R. Tolkien! Here’s my latest tribute to “On Fairy-stories” and the way it shaped the thinking (and writing!) of later fantasy authors.

Sigh. My filter coffee pot died and I’ve discovered that all new ones turn off automatically after 40 minutes now. So instead of having one coffee pot staying warm all day, now I have to make three, wasting filters (and the energy spent manufacturing them). Not sure there’s a net energy save there.

#ScienceHaters think that huge-sounding grants are simply given out like sweets at Halloween and put straight into the pocket of the lead professor's lab coat; if you try to explain they are highly competitive, and cover the equipment, lab time, and salaries of a large number of people for years...
When I explain to people what is involved with writing a successful grant, they simply don’t believe me.

I explained it once to a famous person from Pixar, and he looked me square in the eye and said: You mean all the cancer and Alzheimer’s grants work that way? You’ve gotta be &$%#ing kidding me!
I don't think you non-science people realize what it takes to get a grant funded by NIH. Started experiments in Sept 2021 to generate 3 new mouse mutants to model human disease. Prelim dara shows they have relevant disease phenotypes worthy of study. Need a small grant first to characterize /1
