User:Sadi Carnot
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
My wiki-name is Sadi Carnot, modeled on the famous French physicist and thermodynamicist who in 1824 published the ground-breaking paper "Reflections on the Motive Power of Fire" - a discourse on heat, work, and power. My current research focus is on the thermodynamics, chemistry, and physics of human life and its associated processes, i.e., specifically, what would be commonly referred to as "chemistry between people". You can read a quick bio on me here. If you have any theories (of your own) or know of any theories as to either a thermodynamic or a chemical explanation of human life or you have general thermodynamic or chemistry questions or ideas please feel free to contact me via either my wiki-mail or use my talk page, I will be happy to converse with you!

[edit] Grammar humor
As children we write:
- “See Dick run.”
As adults we write:
- “It is imperative that we assiduously observe Richard as he traverses the terrain at an accelerated rate of speed.”
We gain girth and lose mirth - and so does our prose.

I found this funny stuff in Wikipedia in popular culture.
