Since her death in 1979, the woman who discovered what the universe is made of has not so much as received a memorial plaque. Her newspaper obituaries do not mention her greatest discovery. […] Every high school student knows that Isaac Newton discovered gravity, that Charles Darwin discovered evolution, and that Albert Einstein discovered the relativity of time. But when it comes to the composition of our universe, the textbooks simply say that the most abundant atom in the universe is hydrogen. And no one ever wonders how we know. Jeremy Knowles, discussing the complete lack of recognition Cecilia Payne gets, even today, for her revolutionary discovery. (via alliterate)

  • Arthur: Hello... sir or madam?
  • Carolyn: Madam.
  • Arthur: Madam! Would you like chicken or beef?
  • Carolyn: Well now, that all depends, you see, I'm a celiac.
  • Arthur: Oh! Lovely. Chicken or beef?
  • Carolyn: It means I'm gluten intolerant.
  • Arthur: Well, I'll try not to be too gluten annoying!
  • Carolyn: It means I can't eat gluten.
  • Arthur: We've got chicken or beef!
  • Carolyn: Gluten is in wheat products.
  • Arthur: Oh! Right, yeah, with you! Um, I think they're both fine.
  • Carolyn: No wheat in either?
  • Arthur: Don't think so!
  • Carolyn: Right, then I will have the chicken.
  • Arthur: Okie dokey!
  • Carolyn: Which is coated in bread crumbs, so I'll have a violent reaction, my airways will swell up, and maybe I'll die.
  • Arthur: ......Perhaps the beef?
