Big if true. - Andrew

In my experience, which includes over a decade of formulating in the beginning of my career, a hiatus into general plant engineering, and now a dive back into formulating; formulating existing and new products is best learned from experienced coworkers. Being able to look at the existing...

With the feedback you've received from the two managers, I would like to change my initial advice to the corrosion pipeline position. That manager has a clear vision of what they expect from you and it sounds like you will gain better experience there. - Andrew

More accurately, 1 mg/kg = 1 ppm. But 1 kg of water is equal to 1 L of water, which is why that convention is often used. Regardless of dispersion or solubility, if you have the mass of one component in a solution, mixture, emulsion, etc. and you know the mass of the whole, you can figure out...

If it were me, with the experience I have now, I'd expect you would personally get more useful experience from the MQM position at this stage. It kind of depends on where you expect/intend to land after school, but if you're looking broadly, the MQM experience is more translatable across...

This is a superb series of posts......simply excellent [lol] - Andrew

Good to see the new Eng-Tips management has a loose grip on content moderation. Wait a minute! Eng-Tips....ET! It all makes sense now. - Andrew

"the science is settled" - Andrew

I despise hearing that phrase from people. I especially despise hearing it from technically educated people, who should know better. - Andrew

I believe it is mostly infrared radiation; which can travel through vacuum, as far as I know. - Andrew

IRstuff, were you in Hangar 1 (the big one), or in one of the shorter wood ones? Hangar 1 is mostly steel. - Andrew

I don't know if I ever knew Hangars #5 and #6 here in Lakehurst were wooden. I've spent a good amount of time in Hangar 1, but I don't know if I've ever even been in Hangars 5 or 6. There was a big to-do after the Sandy storm damaged one of them because of the roof height, but fire risk wasn't...

Yes, to bolster IRstuff's comment and your own plan. Setting an acceptable refractive index range is a pretty darn reliable way to field-test coolant concentration once you know your reference points. - Andrew

To condense it, it basically says: oil spills aren't so bad because there is so much natural seepage and there are ecosystems of things like tubeworms that feed off the seepage, so oil spills aren't so bad. Yes, natural oil seepage happens, and cool, the natural systems are able to adapt to...

Yeah, that was the entire subject of the OP article. - Andrew

lol, I'm all for finding a silver linings around problems, but that is just plain silly. 1. Oil spills aren't seeping from the sea floor. 2. Oil spills don't have tube worm communities surrounding them. 3. Oil spills are concentrated, typically, one time occurrences (barring Deepwater Horizon's...

A balloon cannon, if you will. - Andrew
