We need some kind of symbol for "3-months" which we can paint onto laptops, like bombs painted on a Lancaster bomber.
I saw on someone's CV the other day, "renewed 6 times", like it was tours of duty in Afghanistan or something.Comment

Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment
