Like staring into a flashlight

I've been at a microscope all day. I've been isolating individual spores off tissue samples, all work that needs to be done under a dissecting scope. But I found some interesting fungi, and made a few slides and cultures to see what they are (My bet is Trichurus spirilis).

In even better news, I've got a laptop computer so I can do some work from home, including writing and preparing presentations. However, I'm still working on getting the Internet to work on a wireless network. If anybody has a ny ideas, here's the problem: I can connect (and ping) to the wireless network. However, MSN, IE and Firefox cannot browse the Internet with it. I have to be hooked directly into the router in order to browse the Internet (like I'm doing now) If anyone has any advice, please let me know!

Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to make it to Digg In. I'm very sorry about this. I was looking forward to going, but getting off the Island is rather difficult, especially for the timing needed. Hopefully, if the Fates are kind, I'll see if I can go to CbtS.

Hope you can go too.
As for the laptop... no idea... I am confident you will figure it out though! Look forward to chatting on the internet with you!
