A list of a Chemist's Favorite Things:
After going to see
the Memphis Redbirds play the Isotopes, I started thinking about what items a
chemist might be interested in. Here is what I've come up with so far,
can you add anything to my list? E-mail me at mdraganj@astate.edu to add an
entry. If accepted, I will add your item, and if you like, give you
credit for the entry.
