- Any EPR/DNP folks at Pacifichem. This X-band phased array kinda has us all beat. easy to spot in Honolulu now
- prepping to submit a new Nature/Science manuscript...
- very moving Arizona memorial visit before Pacifichem
- lucky you!
- Congrats to Carlito Lebrilla of UC Davis Chemistry for election to the National Academy of Inventors this year. The whole impressive list: academyofinventors.org/wp-content/u...

- yeah, it wasn't me, it was the "professionals" who destroyed it! quite a story for sometimes
- the destroyed magnet rested in the UCB Chemistry machine shop for some time....
- I unfortunately have seen this go very badly....

- is the dimer core of the H-cluster of FeFe hydrogenase formed by rSAM chemistry in HydE? pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10....
- enjoy!!!
- a company (I will not name here) decided to throw away money by setting up a solar array AND Tesla Powerwall at the house, charge us a flat rate for the next 25 years, and it starts for less that we were paying for PG&E power before. Yes solar is just a fantasy power source.
