DC Tom Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Scientists using the Herschel telescope spotted something odd on the asteroid Ceres. I have no idea what "TEARS" is. Looks like an acronym I've never seen. Possibly they mean "water", since Herschel works in the far-infrared spectrum, which is a good bad for detecting water vapor, but I don't know why they'd capitalize it. "Excuse me, stewardess. I speak jive."

DC Tom Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Peyton Manning's new audible system for the Superbowl instead of "OMAHA!" Or Sherman's latest on-field rant. I'd actually pay to see him shout that to Erin Andrews.

DC Tom Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 So, a scientist is a boffin? It is if you're a Limey stuck in the '40s.
