Geek love in the noblest form
I was entertained this morning by the reading of a C&EN newscript on science tattoos.
A science blog by Carl Zimmer reports a number of of scientists wearing now just your regular style of tatoos but those proudly proclaiming their work. I especially liked the DNA dragon of Ad Bax. Another guy’s DNA tattoo gives, in DNA code, the Amino Acid One-Letter notation EEE – the initials of his wife :-). But there are many more to see – so many more that Zimmer moved them over to a Flickr set. I’m really no fan of tattoos – I would never hurt myself in such a way 🙂 – but it’s fun to see how much thought people spend on certain things.
