    I’ve kept as beat as interested in science stuff and got better at some math in that regard. I work with a guy with a geology degree and we have access to a 650 degree pizza oven and we totally do science in there on slow days. Usually just seeing how fast something burns. We did get dome measuring tape put one day and tried to measure the fireball from throwing a handful of flour in but it melted the tape. One time I dumped a bucket of ice in there and then went outside to see the billow of steam out of the exhaust

      This is science, true and primal

        I am a firm believer in experimenting an collecting data for no specific hypothesis. I live entirely in the Fuck Around and Find Out neighborhood of Sciencetown

        It’s a tough gig so you have fun while you can. We also fixed a dinged up pizza paddle like old timey blacksmiths by heating the end up in the oven, basing it with a hammer and then shaving it down with the whetstone. My idea to squirt all the cleaning chemicals into the oven at once has so far been thwarted but one day…
