Funny coincidence to have two articles about women scientists studying the sun at one week interval. Remember, the other was Japanese. Very interesting story too.

It's a great piece of laptop. It copied the MacBook for all important points. The touchpad is the only downside to me. The OS and matte screen are huge pluses.

Formic comes from the Latin word for ant. It's what ants spray at an intruder when upset. It's also hallucinogenic. Good stuff.

That's actually great, but not always possible. Maybe save by living frugally for a while, as the OP did?
