      Stripped Science’s first contest closed at last Sunday, I held the draw this week:
      The winners are Cath and Matt, plus Bob’s name was pulled out from the hat, so he also won a free T-shirt.
      Congratulation to the winners and enjoy the strip!

          The narrator looks like an oddly shaped fragile glass container too.

          Not naming any names here, but one institution I worked in was constructed in such a way that the chemical fume hood exhaust was all dumped into the lab administrator’s office. I think they only figured it out because she didn’t like the smell of formaldehyde. Insane. Very strange to see that this interesting construction is common!

          @Anna: On the other hand, that provides a very practical way for the lab staff to get back at the administrator after being crossed by him/her. Perhaps the architect who designed the building had spent some time as a postdoc in his youth?

          Ha! Good one. That would be smart thinking. However, by administrator, I meant department secretary. I generally hate to be on their bad sides. Will keep the neat exhaust trick up my sleeve for future use :)
