State College has limited interesting people. Recall, however, that State College is in Pennsylvania. As such there are strict government limits on the number of interesting people that can live there and I blogged on most of them. It's a good thing I left when I did, because there really was no more material.
Speaking of material... The PSU material science building is called Steidle. It looks a lot like the Whitehouse from the front. Because of this a material science graduate student posted a flyer showing the building being destroyed by one of the alien ships from Independance Day.
Speaking of Steidle... Because Steidle is not in New York city, it can afford certain luxuries as compared to Havemeyer (the Columbia Chemistry building). It has a male bathroom on every floor (although like Havemeyer, it only has a female bathroom on every other floor). It has several fire exits. It has a door that remains unlocked 24/7. And... it has tons of drinking fountains.
Speaking of drinking fountains... Yum! Drinking fountains! Those were great! They meant I could cut back on drinking from my deadly nalgene water bottle, which has now been replaced by a SIGG aluminum bottle (Swiss made). I used to love that green nalgene bottle. But towards the end it always smelled funny and the plastic supposedly leeches chemicals. And the rubber on the lid turned from black to white.
Well, that about wraps it up for State College. And really, if the material on this blog was the only thing ever written about that city, it would be more than it deserved.
