    Earlier people used to switch on TV's after getting bored with their routine work. Now they switch on to routine work after getting bored with TV.

    The word "DIET' is just the word "DIE" with a "T" on the end.

    If I remember correctly, this is an amino acid? Even though it seems like a sugar to me [-serine ending]
    But it isn't in the IUPAC naming system, so I can't be sure.

    It's a protein, more commonly known as tryptophan synthetase (E. coli variant I believe).

    Rather than create many little posts (not because I don't want a high post count or because of my keyboard :) but mostly because its damn hot...

    I quite like the Lao Tzu saying below and included the variants cause at least some of them are funny, the dilbert variant of this is not too bad either

    Give a man a fish and you will feed him for a day
    Teach a man to fish and you will feed him for a lifetime.

    Variants :

    Teach a man to fish and he will kick your ass and steal your fishing pole.
    Teach a man to fish and he will eat for a lifetime. Teach a man to create an artificial shortage of fish and he will eat steak.
    Teach a man to fish, and though he's fed for life, he'll call you a miser for not giving him your fish.
    Give a man a fish, he owes you one fish. Teach a man to fish, you give up your monopoly on fisheries.
    Teach a man to fish, and you can sell him a ton of accessories.
    Teach a man to fish and you've fed him for a lifetime ... unless, of course, he doesn't like sushi -- then you also need to teach him how to cook.
    Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day Teach a man to fish and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day.
    Give a man a fish, and he can eat for a day. But teach a man how to fish, and he'll be dead of mercury poisoning inside of three years.
    Give a man a fish he'll eat for a day, if you teach a man a fish he'll get drunk then fall out of his boat and drown.
    Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; Teach him to use the Internet, and he won't bother you for weeks!
    Give a man a fish and you'll feed him for a day, but give him a case of dynamite and soon the village will be showered with mud and seaweed and unidentifiable chunks of fish.
    Give a man some fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
    Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he'll overfish, cause famine in the next three regions and pollute the atmosphere with his fish.
    Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Give a man religion and he will starve to death praying for a fish
    Give a man a fish and feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you can get rid of him for a whole weekend.
    Give a man a fish, he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish, he eats for a lifetime. Enlighten him further, he owns a chain of seafood restaurants
    If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day; if you give a man a machine that makes fish, teach him to operate it, and enslave him, you feed yourself for a lifetime.
    Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish; and you will not have to listen to his incessant whining about how hungry he is.
    Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish; and you can sell him fishing equipment.
    Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to use the Net and he won't bother you for weeks.
    Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. Unless he doesn't like sushi - then you also have to teach him to cook.
    Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish, and he will sit in the boat and drink beer all day.
    Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish; and you have fed him for a lifetime. Teach a man to sell fish and he eats steak.
    Give a man a fish, and you satisfy his fish craving for a day. Give him fish aversion therapy, and you eliminate the craving for life.
    Give a woman a fish and you'll be sleeping on the couch again
    Give a man a fish, and he'll wonder what you want from him.

    NB: This obviously doesn't apply when processing HijackThis output, because man would all too often end up as a woman with the added bonus of having sushi all over the floor :)

    It also helps being a chemist who's done a fair amount of solid phase oligopeptide synthesis in the past. It's google (or any other search tool) + having some previous knowledge which helps zero in the search strategy.

    On the longest word - that would also be a protein, which is comprised of amino acids and in mature form it can be glycosylated or have some other form of secondary derivatization (e.g. disulfide bridges between cysteine residues).

    But enouigh of the chemistry lesson, it's the weekend.

    Yipes! You got me there, cap'n!

    I'm fairly certain it was and amino acid... but It's been 6 years since I learnt about it...

    Don't know about the long word bit, but it all sounds to me like the makings of a very dry Cocktail.....at which point in the process do you add the Vodka, the Absinthe and the Turps?.....I'm also assuming it should not be shaken under any circumstances...right?


    Cochise, :cool:

    PS. How do you get that long word as being a one liner, or is it classed as a long liner being used as one word..?

    Right after you validate the sequence, queue up the reagents, hit the go button, and kick back... {insert Cocktail here}
    Correct, under no circumstances is stirring performed unless the agitator is suspended - too much particle attrition - the automated units always shake (and you were probably just trying to pull in the Bond reference :))
