What disturbed me most that there are 502 law students in a single year while my own field has about 80-ish in the first year. You don't need that much law, for fuck's sake.

Imagine a world with so many lawyers :P

That does sound pretty interesting actually. Are you focusing on anything in particular?

Their diversity within tissues. To some extent, it supports the concept that macrophages proliferate in situ rather than rely on a supply of monocytes from the bone marrow, which results in a greater degree of differentiation that dendritic cells, which are replenished from the bone marrow and thus have a more tightly-grouped lineage than macrophages, as the latter spends more time separated in different tissues.

Seems like you have the royal blessing now? :P
Although I've read several articles talking about the many great things about jute, too. :D
Like this
Carl Sagan, astrophysicist and atheist wrote:"Science is not only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality.
When we recognize our place in an immensity of light-years and in the passage of ages,
when we grasp the intricacy, beauty, and subtlety of life, then that soaring feeling,
that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely spiritual...
The notion that science and spirituality are somehow mutually exclusive does a disservice to both."
Italios wrote:Jute's probably some sort of Robin Hood-type outlaw
