I'm new here.... hello!
2006-01-22, 8:05 AM #1
So I'm the girlfriend of that much loved physicist "James Bond", and he's told me to stop lurking, get myself a log-in and introduce myself. So here I am...

I'm Jo. I'm an astrophysicist that graduated last summer and has absolutely nothing to show for it - except the degree. I'm not one of those stereotypical ones though, I don't have a beard for starters.

I hear this is the point where massassi takes my soul :)

Come get it ;)

Astrophysicist... Hmm... So, you could then give a scientific explanation to the ages old question why witches are most powerful when all the planets of the solar system are lined up, right?

Anyway, this is an auspicious time to join, because the coldest part of the winter is right here, and Brian needs as many souls to burn as possible to keep his fort warm and cozy.

No, I know about the physics of the universe not about the "mystic power" used by said story tellers to make people jump through hoops at midnight on the second sunday in february :)

Oh. That's a pity. I thought I would finally get the scientific explanation, not the mystic one.

Wow you astrophysicists are everywhere! By a strange twist of events I'm living with two next year. One's gone for the hairy look (heck even his feet are like a hobbit), while the other is a girl which kinda offsets the shere amount of hair in the house. :P

Anyway, welcome and stolen souls and all that stuff!

ASTROPHYSICS SUCKS!

I left the course because it sucked, not just cos I failed the 1st year :(
It used mathematics (+ bad teaching) that a graduate told me wasnt even used in the end of the degree and after.

So, wife of 007, will you be doing anything USEFUL with your rocket science degree?

Or are you gonna join the other 95% of physics graduates, and waste your knowledge and talent on Banking and teaching? :rolleyes:

ps. YAY for more Brit Girls

I refuse to be a banker ( :) ) and I did think about teaching for about 5 minutes until I realised it involves screaming children who don't want to learn.

Big plan at the moment is applying to do my doctorate. Applications are out there, and I've 4 weeks of interviews to look forward to at least. Similar to James Bond really, except that he wants to look at tiny bits of matter and I want to look at things I can't reach. Great hey.

ps ASTROPHYSICS ROCKS!!

pps yep I'm a brit chick

yep Joey is my girlfriend, she's come up to london to visit and in the process taken over my computer...I've been relegated to finishing off the marking I have to do... :mad:

so, in the few minutes I have while she isn't on it I thought I better post something...

On the tiny matter front...its particle physics, who wouldn't want to use a multi-billion £/$ machine to bash stuff together, its like a grown up boys dream toy :D

Ok, maybe I'm bitter, Astrophysics does rock, potentially at least.

I implore the both of you, Joey and Bond, to research and find PRACTICAL uses for, Tritium/Deuterium Fusion, Plasma physics, particle physics and new methods of propulsion.
They are by far the most interesting areas of physics (aside from deep space star formation, black holes etc).

the reason I get so angry about physics is because it is one of the most important skills of this country, and possibly the most important field in all of the sciences...
And what do we have to show for it?
Not as much as we should.


Fuel Cells, Environmentally friendly nuclear power, deep space propulsion, anything.

Work hard to push the boundries of technology..

Sorry, i ramble. :(
