| | | I'm off
Dear fellow SYM:ers, I'm off for a 3-week holiday at east Greenland and Iceland. I will fly out in 12 hours (I'm at the lab now, writing frantically at a paper I have to finish before that) and spend 1 day in Reykjavik (this because the only flight to Greenland leaves earlier in the day from Reykjavik than the flight from Stockholm arrives there). The following morning I'll fly to Kulusuk at the east coast of Greenland. After that I'm not sure what do to, only that it will include hiking in the mountains (not Tom's kind though) and kayaking in the fiords among the icebergs and pack ice  And I will not think of work for a minute
I will then return to Iceland and spend the last 5 days with the hubby there, since he has never been to Iceland.
Take care everybody and see you later!

| I will when I get home to pack my bag! We are already trying to figure out when on earth we may have time to visit Bangkok! Give Georgi a kiss from me (and Dottie) when you see her!

Sleeping in front of a PET camera? I have no idea what that really is, but the camera part sounds promising

| | @Zelgadis: The fridge? What are you doing? Cryo-freezing? A PET (positron emission tomography) camera is a sweet and expensive toy for imaging of the living brain. Because of the radioactivity and that the PET system is in the cellar, and that's where my colleague sometimes sleeps at the floor. I prefer the bed in the examination room.
Thanks DW, I think it's going to be great!

| |  PET?
...how is it different from the MRI (magnetic resonance imagery)?
BTW, get me some snow from Iceland and keep it for me should you decide to drop by again in BKK.
A kiss? Just a kiss?
