Who are RPF's scientists, mathematicians, chemists, electricians, etc (or soon to be...)

Just arc and oxy/acetylene or have you gotten into the newfangled fancy stuff? /curious

MIG - TIG - stick - and oxy/acetylene on various metals.

All repair related, fixing welded, cast and machined fittings and parts of all types and sizes, from diesel parts to steam parts to automotive.

In other words, no fabbing, artwork or new manufacture.
 
I kin write good. :p

Also:

I am the very model of a modern Major-General,
I've information vegetable, animal, and mineral,
I know the kings of England, and I quote the fights historical
From Marathon to Waterloo, in order categorical;
I'm very well acquainted, too, with matters mathematical,
I understand equations, both the simple and quadratical,
About binomial theorem I'm teeming with a lot o' news,
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse.
I'm very good at integral and differential calculus;
I know the scientific names of beings animalculous:
In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral,
I am the very model of a modern Major-General.
I know our mythic history, King Arthur's and Sir Caradoc's;
I answer hard acrostics, I've a pretty taste for paradox,
I quote in elegiacs all the crimes of Heliogabalus,
In conics I can floor peculiarities parabolous;
I can tell undoubted Raphaels from Gerard Dows and Zoffanies,
I know the croaking chorus from The Frogs of Aristophanes!
Then I can hum a fugue of which I've heard the music's din afore,
And whistle all the airs from that infernal nonsense Pinafore.
Then I can write a washing bill in Babylonic cuneiform,
And tell you ev'ry detail of Caractacus's uniform:
In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral,
I am the very model of a modern Major-General.
In fact, when I know what is meant by "mamelon" and "ravelin",
When I can tell at sight a Mauser rifle from a Javelin,
When such affairs as sorties and surprises I'm more wary at,
And when I know precisely what is meant by "commissariat",
When I have learnt what progress has been made in modern gunnery,
When I know more of tactics than a novice in a nunnery—
In short, when I've a smattering of elemental strategy—
You'll say a better Major-General has never sat a gee.
For my military knowledge, though I'm plucky and adventury,
Has only been brought down to the beginning of the century;
But still, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral,
I am the very model of a modern Major-General.

Deserves a tube:

I am the very model of a scientist salarian –
I’ve studied species Turian, Asari and Batarian –
I’m quite good at genetics as a subset of biology –
because I am an expert which I know is a tautology!
My xenoscience studies range from urban to agrarian –
I am the very model of a scientist salarian!

I'm also a bit of a PRO-SE wrench in the gears for banks who can't figure out what the fuck they did with people's mortgage papers. But that's all copy and paste stuff since legal docs are public. It's personal to me to not see the banks paid over and over and over.

I recently hired a lawyer for that, myself. The first thing they did was to tell the court to disregard everything I did - which had kept the plaintiff not answering my interrogatories for 2 years, but I'll reserve judgement. We'll see.
 
Hey this is my kind of thread!

B.S. in Statistics, M.A. in Economics. I work as an insurance analyst for a very small company which started a few years ago and recently restructured (so it's practically a startup). I generally spend most of my day in Excel, either building financial models or analyzing insurance and doing all kinds of ad-hoc work (of which there is a lot).
 
Research on the leaching of food and liquid contaminants from plastics (plasticizers, phthalates) using high performance liquid chromatography with variables such as pH and temperature.

Now that's interesting! What about plastic water bottles? Are they killing us? Destroying our brains? Mimicking hormones?

How much effect does temperature have? I.e. heated in a hot car, frozen in the freezer, thawed, and then consumed? Any reactions with other consumable liquids? Fruit juice? Tea? Alcohol? Soda? All safe?
