   Jesus. Embarrassing. The pics were taken in the soil lab as mine is PC2 (and I do have a lab before you ask). Bob -love those feline viruses! Bloody great.

   Love the random glassware. Surprised they didn't fill them with coloured liquids.

   Worth pointing out that glassware like that is used for (a) chemistry experiments and (b) bacterial culture. At least they don't have him holding a pipette upside down (and I'll point out that the glassware is pointing in the right direction too).

   Can I tweet it? Would be good to get out the bit about pissing off the Chinese Authorities! But I don't want to wind upthe tin foilers if it will make things worse.

    Is that a huge bag of Renminbi next to him though? And does that flask say RaTG18?

    AWESOME!
12. 2020-10-26 15:51 Edward C. Holmes open PDF p.232
    I really should have written RaTG18 on one of those flasks. Damn. Next time.
