Thanks for the offer.

I only have a room though, and the governing body would not be impressed if I were to have a woman in my room. For some reason they don't object to me bringing males up to my room. Odd, that.

You will have to walk, just as I do, Tribble. Can you keep up?

A surprising amount of modern pseudoscience is coming out of the environmental sector. Perhaps it should not be so surprising given that environmentalism is political rather than scientific.

As of yesterday afternoon, my new job title is "Administrative Assistant" :-)

This is as good as a promotion to me.

Interesting times...

Huggles Calo!! Brilliant :)
"Integrity" and "integer" both contain a Latin root meaning "whole; complete." The root sense, then, is that people may be said to be acting with integrity when their beliefs, words, and actions have a sense of unity or wholeness.

I have my student number now.
All that remains is for me to register on 6 December.
I am not feeling excited yet.
In truth, I don't know what to expect.
