~a bastion of scientific intellectualism~

So it appears that Joy the goldfish (an emotional purchase of mine from the Walmart goldfish mines...), named after Joy-the-former-doctoral student (who is, as I post this, helping out a current graduate student with a functional genomics study at the University of Oklahoma) - is floating upside down.  The eclair-making postdoc (who made another batch of eclairs last week and may I just say:  WOW) cleaned out the tank really well (with some help from others I think) - but that was before this video was made (and downloaded onto YouTube, where - perhaps I shouldn't be so surprised here - there are a number of videos posted on goldfish floating upside down).

Anyway, here is Joy - and some of the lab (aka 'bastion of scientific intellectualism') watching Joy (and while I could make fun of them here, and I am - I am guilty of Joy-watching as well, an understatement, so what can I say?).

We'll keep you posted on her health status.  She's been getting peas (fresh from a student's garden), she's fasted, been quarantined, and is now back into a clean tank getting food pellets that sink. 

Yeah, you're thinking, so THIS is what they do.
