	"You get a bigger bang with a chemist"  ;-)

From: Bob McHugh (mchughrj@chemsci1.es.dupont.com)
	(From the "Canonical List of "Do It" Lines)
	Chemists do it in an excited state.
	Chemists do it in test tubes.    
	Chemists do it in the fume hood.
	Chemists do it organically. 
	Chemists do it periodically on table.
	Chemists do it reactively.
	Chemists do it with pipettes.
	Chemists like to experiment.
	Chemists do it in packed beds.
	Chemists do it with packed columns.

This reminds me of the bumper stickers ACS used to sell:
	"Heisenberg may have slept here."
	"Experiment with a chemist."
	"If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate."
And my favorite (since I teach chemistry):
	"Teachers do it with class."
[That's funny; when I taught school they made it pretty clear that I was not
expected to do it with my class...  -psl]

Another good one is of course:
	Cuddle a chemist, see the reaction
