Hi Matty and welcome! :flowers:

Did you just change you avatar on TalkRational? (nosy me) I thought both name and avatar looked familiar, but I may be mixing things up (no, I have not posted on TR yet - I only registered less than a week ago and have only had time to take a few quick glances).
"The internet is made of people. People matter. This includes you. Stop trying to sell everything about yourself to everyone. Don’t just hammer away and repeat and talk at people—talk TO people. It’s organic. Make stuff for the internet that matters to you, even if it seems stupid. Do it because it’s good and feels important. Put up more cat pictures. Make more songs. Show your doodles. Give things away and take things that are free." - Maureen J

Hi Matty! :td: :td:
Although it may look like a forum, this site is actually a crowd-sourced science project modelling the slow but inexorable heat death of the universe.

I'm a hairy Brit now resident in Canada, father of 2, avid guitarist and general muso. Bit of a foody and love cooking. Play various sports, none of them especially well,
I'm a professional scientist, more specifically the manager of a core imaging facility specializing in flow cytometry and confocal microscopy amngst other things, bascially i get to fire losts of lasers at stuff and take some rather nice images.
We're based in the Cancer Biology and Genetics division of one of the "Ivy League" Canadian Universities.

Oh yeah, and i'm an atheist, (well duh) , and dig arguing. :)

The member list is under members at the top.
I'm wild just like a rock, a stone, a tree
And I'm free, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I flow, just like a brook, a stream, the rain
And I fly, just like a bird up in the sky
And I'll surely die, just like a flower plucked
And dragged away and thrown away
And then one day it turns to clay
It blows away, it finds a ray, it finds its way
And there it lays until the rain and sun
Then I breathe, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I grow, just like a baby breastfeeding
And it's beautiful, that's life
