@the_distillate Can we declare Powder pimperlimpimp a #funkyscienceterm (it is technical, sort of) and assist @OEDonline to revive it?

@OxfordWords @OEDonline @AltusAlti How about PALL PELL PILL POLL PULL (Pell as in half of Pell-Mell)? Or is that cheating?

I love that you can use peptidomics on cashmere to check for cheaper yak wool (via @ChemistryWorld)

@DameJEMarshall @Hirst_Shark @OxfordWords And be very careful with spell checkers, that constantly want to metamorphose squaloid to squalid

@DameJEMarshall @Wwm_Shakespeare @oxfordwords @hirst_shark I want one of those pens, to write on vellum, and then have delivery by owl!

@Hirst_Shark @OxfordWords @DameJEMarshall Thank you for your squaloid grin

@OxfordWords I am so happy that "squaloid" made its way to @Hirst_Shark (thanks @DameJEMarshall). Where might "struthious" (ostrich) end up?

@sdc_org_uk and now I can't type. SDC not SDS, of course...

@sdc_org_uk Was just tweeting about the latest #TheColourist but had not realised the SDS had a twitter account. Sorry about that!

Just reading an article in #TheColourist (magazine of the #SDC) about reactive dyes and happy to see several #patent citations

@OxfordWords if we are on the animal adjectives, may I recommend "squaloid" - relating to a shark.

@the_distillate Hear hear! I am a great fan of the appropriately split infinitive. And ending sentences with prepositions.

@the_distillate can you even pronounce that? #funkyscienceterms

@DrVRonaldson congratulations on completing the 10k run. Enjoy the rest of the day!

@the_distillate good luck. I am off to mass so will pray for you ;-)

It is difficult to #WinkattheMoon here in London now but RIP Neil Armstrong.

@patentology same here. But I think it is the most exciting patent case I can remember in a very long time. To many posts to read, though!

Apparently #Apple prevails over #Samsung and damages over $1 billion.

Glued to twitter for news of #applevsamsung. I may be chemist but this is MAJOR!

When not doing chemical patents, I also enjoy registered designs. Here's a note of three recent cases from @The_IPO http://t.co/qghtyTtC

Your rantings are so random and off topic, like your rearrangement’s not even sigmatropic #scidozens

@the_distillate not very #funkyscienceterms but I have just been discussing Lewy Body - insoluble proteinaceous mass causing dementia

@the_distillate Thanks very much for the FF, but I have noticed that you don't seem to follow me yourself :-( #funkyscienceterms in prgress

@the_distillate I have de-anonymised my profile as people were getting confused.

@the_distillate You have broken the rules by not defining it ;-) #funkyscienceterms #pedantry

@the_distillate Let's go to Crypts of Lieberkühn via the Islets of Langerhans (in pancreas - produce hormones eg insulin) #funkyscienceterms
