Tattoos and Piercings in academia and beyond
There's a book by Carl Zimmer titled "Science Ink" that goes into detail about scientists that have tattoos, or people who are aspiring to be scientists.

My Lobotomy: A 23-Minute NPR Radio Piece on Howard Dully

What Kind of Citrus Fruit is This?
I have no idea, Danago. I thought I'd do a quick google search for wrinkly pears, but having the search filter on "Do filter my search results" only managed to scar me. A guy I know said they might be some form of Etrog. :smile:- Dominance

What makes physics so fascinating and appealing?
