  1. Shit, I had a significant other whose father had a trip to Inner Mongolia to do programming instruction– to teach gallium arsenide crystal growing technology to a plant full of people not too terribly long ago– maybe 6 years ago?.. His recollections from the trip: "some guy stole my mouse while I was talking to the department head." Also (paraphrasing) the floor was very unstable, from one room to another you had to step down, but there were no actual steps..

    1. My last job for someone else's company, we were going to do a set up in Mongolia. I figured the lack of infrastructure and ethics would be offset by the dark skies/telescope time and fossil hunting I'd do in my off time.

          1. More like "moron man"- I just replied to your comment via email and forgot you said GaAs growing. Not quite bulldozers.

  2. Yikes. Terrible disaster. Hope something like it doesn't happen again. Hell of a blast wave- shades of Oklahoma City :(
