Well, Sylvester's on the fritz.
My computer is on the fritz. Thankfully, it appears to be a relatively minor problem (fan that's part of the cooling system is defective in some way). Also thankfully, I decided to go with a 3-year "protection plan," so the machine's still under warranty for the defective part. However, it's going to be mid-day on Monday before I'll have my computer back, so I'll be AFK until then. It might actually be a nice break.
I had so much work to do on my compy this weekend, but instead, I guess I'll have to focus on the 649,400,305 other items on my to-do list.
My second group of students gave their presentations today. Somehow they had a rougher time than my other lab, perhaps because it's the end of the week and so it's hard to stay focused. A lot of them tried to use science to PROVE things, which I find impressive and depressing because one cannot actually prove anything using the scientific method. But one way or another, they have gotten through the presentations and can now go back to the usual, less intense methods of demonstrating what they have learned.
