cornerofmadnesssince I coughed up 3000 words for Natgel's chapter I didn't have much time let over for nanomo so I got pathetically little done. THen again my students broke my brain. Here's an acutal conversation from lab.
Student #1 - Dana, we don't understand how the meninges attach to the crista gali (for you non-science types, the meninges are the coverings around the brain and the crista gali is the 'chicken's beak, a ridge of bone INSIDE the skull, keep that part in mind it's important)
Dana - Huh?
STudent #2 - We're following the skull key (note, they're using the wrong numbered key code) and we don't understand how the meninges get through the skull to attach here.
Dana (at this point my brain has exploded within its meninges because they don't understand the obvious thing they're missing) Okay let's think about this for a moment ladies. The crista gali is here (I point inside the skull)
Student #1 - yeah we know that but how do the meninges go through the skull to get there. We dont' see any holes.
Student #2 - This key isn't helping (no duh)
Dana - Think harder girls. The crista is on the INSIDE of the skull. WHERE is your brain and its meninges inside or outside of your skull.
Both turn bright red and start laughing. Please save me from these people.
Oh and a note on Natgel's chapter. It's rough, yeah I said that but what I didn't say is a) if you see glaring errors TELL me b) I just jossed myself with this and will have to fix a later chapter where Buffy had no clue what had happened in L.A. duh.

Of course, if you were actually shooting them, those water pistols would've been filled with acid or something.
