The strange and secret tastes of nanomaterials researchers
I found a really promising book on Amazon the other day. It looks very relevant to my research, reasonably priced -- a perfect addition to my wish list, given the current status of our family budget!
On adding it to the wish list, I was greeted with a rather bewildering sight...
I suppose nanomaterials research, being a more advanced subject, tends to attract researchers from a more advanced stage in life. It's not inconceivable that some of them might have kids, for whom they also shop at Amazon. Or maybe they just really like animated films.
Either way, it's a pretty funny connection.
