Soren37 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 It's peas! Which means it's Gregor Mendel's birthday today! The forefather of genetics! Bio-geeks unite! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zanarkin Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 (edited) It gave me a grin, although I'm not a big Bio fan. I prefer Physics and Chemistry to be honest. Edited July 21, 2011 by Jhen Mohran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragnell Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I thought it was cool. I told my parents and they were just like "who's that?" So I had to explain that that is the man to whom I owe my future career in biology. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Rey León Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 You would think it would be common knowledge. Sadly, it is not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirron Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Oh, that's why it's peas? I don't know his birthday, but I remember him. Heh, that makes it all the more amusing then. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirron Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I miss school. :( It was so nice and peaceful, all things considered. Nice way to socialize, lots of people in general, not much wrong with school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirron Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I love exams though. :P Was my favorite part of school. Homework was the issue for me. I hate working like that, on a daily basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I thought it was cool. I told my parents and they were just like "who's that?" So I had to explain that that is the man to whom I owe my future career in biology. Mine was exactly the opposite. Mother's a biologist. I got it after about half a minute.
