I embrace my nerdiness also I am just as good at it as you It's doesn't help that my nerdiness is in the IT and web design fields here either, not many topics in which I can really display my intellectual kung-fu.

haha this explains why you wander around in thought..
ive done various things. phosphates in ancient fish bones, fish otoliths, water, but mostly carbonate in the form of marl in lacustrine sediments. those silicates dont really work, they are a opal(amorphouse quartz) which exchanges O easily with water(does not give you ancient values). some people say if they treat them and take off the outter "shell" it can work. what did you do work on??

I got the unique opportunity to analyze some 450,000 year old Ice-cores at the local Institute for Sub-Arctic and Alpine Research (INSTAAR). They were shipped up from Antarctica and we had the horrible task of counting the cores, and then the fantastic task of chromatography analysis on trapped gases to determine past atmospheric ratios, and then some isotopic analysis to attempt to predict historical temperature trends.
pretty fun stuff

I once documented the effects of alcohol on various insects, not as important but I am sure equally as fun, considering the ant's left me plenty of left overs and the roach didn't go anywhere near it.

Nice man, what type of alcohol? And how did the ants react? Did they die?

lol no umm most of them just walked in staggered lines or stayed still, some died but prolly from downing, I used a cue-tip dipped in everclear to administer so the dose was less then scientific.
