if there were no need for 'engineers from the quantum plenum' then we should not have any unanswered scientific questions.

Depression tried to creep in, and then anxiety got its foot in the door....and I stopped it!

Well done!  :computerwave:

I've started training some new interns so that they can take some of the load off my back. So far so good.

Paid interns?

No, at least not for the moment. If they're lucky they can start receiving a government monthly grant of roughly $100 but since the country's in a financial crisis it's unlikely. I'm most probably going to lose my grant (but that's not a topic for this thread). :( 

They're undergraduates looking to get into a graduate program in the near future and will be getting curriculum points, not to mention practical experience.

That's awesome. I think all studies and projects that affect humanity's progress should be a group effort.

Something about you all made me happy. So you should be happy because I am happy.

I'm not happy, I was indifferent but there must be balance.
There is entirely to much happy going on around here.
I will sacrifice my equilibrium and go grumpy to restore the balance.
Take my advice, don't listen to me.
