Hmm, interesting . . .

A friend once shared with me something their Dad did when in a sticky social situation. Cornered by the party bore who thought their life was simply so fascinating they had to tell him about every last detail of it, without pausing for breath, and without any indication that they might ask him about his… Read More Hmm, interesting . . .

To be fair . . .

I’ve known about Adams’ Equity Theory for a long time (look it up here if you’re unsure).  And I always thought I’d understood entirely why it’s rolled out when there’s any discussion about motivation.  But recently I really came to understand it through a situation of perceived unfairness that brought theory to life.

What might happen in the tea room . . .

You don’t need to understand the nuances of chemical shift anisotropy (I don’t) to understand the message here.  Sir Peter Mansfield talks about “the birth of the MRI” . . . “In those days coffee and tea breaks were taken in the tea room of the Physics Department. It was an opportunity for members of… Read More What might happen in the tea room . . .
