Chemistry Professor at Dalhousie University. Interested in sustainable organic and main-group chemistry, and asymmetric catalysis, with phosphorus, nitrogen, and sulfur compounds. Camper, plant hoarder, and Victorian house enthusiast.
Thinking of numbers, I've been to 10 countries, and transited through 2 more without stopping. Not a huge number for academics, but a decent number for my little hometown.
Kind of weird I found myself watching Donnie Darko a couple of days ago, then just now heard the sad news of Daveigh Chase's death. Far too young.
I posted things mostly form my train trip from Toronto to Halifax, but the other direction was fun too!
Here's an unusual throw-back I found from 6 years ago. I was experimenting with some transfer techniques, and found myself in possession of a solid chunk of SF6. I filmed it subliming. A slightly environmentally irresponsible thing to have, though I will have made up for it by the end of my career.
Yes, that's very helpful. Of course I meant to type "needs", and not "nXDS"..... another website made impossible to use in the name of "improvement". It will not let me search this term. I guess I won't be buying spare parts from them.
