Okay, I have news as well. I have been as you may know, trying to get a research post in science for while now. Well today I got the one I have been after for a while, its research into the development of new sustainable crops for possible use as a source of biofuels, (as an alternative to gasoline, and diesels in cars and generators etc) and the use of various effluents to fertilize these crops, and also their use in the remediation of soils as well as a source of biofuels. Its based in the national center for agri-science an environmental research in Ireland, and University College Dublin, and I will be working towards me masters and PHd degrees as part of this work. Its a great thing to happen to me, as things have been tough lately career-wise and I really wanted this, so I am delighted of course. I will be pretty much up to me eyeballs with it though, thats one thing, so it might make me an even more sporadic poster, but I will be around of course as well! Thanks to everyone with their encouragement for me in keeping on keeping on, its appreciated. I am very happy today! :-6

CONGRATS!!!! I envy all you smart people who can make a difference in this world!

And quite rightly too! Congrats Sir and may the job be all you hope it is and more.

that is spectacular news....

Is biofuel like ethanol? The stuff made from corn?

Wow Gally this is awesome for you.

Galbally, I'm really happy for you, that you are getting something you so wanted! I wish you only the absolute best!

Congratulations Gal you clever thing. :-6

I am so glad for you Gally !!!!! And interesting and rewarding position, doing something very worthwhile. Congratulations!!!

Woohoo Gall, that is wonderful news. I'm like Minks I wanna know if your gonna be working with products like ethanol??

Bio-fuels are all the talk these days in agriculture here. All the farm magazines we get have articles about it.

Congrats Gals, I'm really proud of you :guitarist

well done dr g :-6 :-6

Congrats Dr G! You're soon to be a real Doctor!!

I bet your sense of humour will get you through the exhaustion.

What they all said.

Congratulations

Good for you G-man. Now while you are working with all those other smart scientist type people, see if you can get them to help you invent an alcoholic beverage that doesn't hurt the liver. Oh and a real cure for the hangover.

I'm happy for you Gal, you never cease to impress me!:-6

That's tremendous, you've been talking wistfully of how much you'd like that for ages, I'm delighted you've got the offer.

Thanks everyone, I really appreciate all the good thoughts, its been a good day for me, and its lovely to be able to give you some good news. The stuff I am doing is very interesting, and yes its all linked to the use of these new crops for biofuels, its being run on a European level, but its not actually "public domain" in terms of papers published on things yet, there are issues involved in that, so I won't go into specifics or talk about it in detail, but yes minks its all that kinda area, which is very much an important area of research at the moment. So its good work for my career, and its also valid and worthwhile as well, I am very happy about it, so again, thanks everyone, and I will of course keep you filled in on interesting aspects of it all I am sure.

Hey well done :-6 . When do you start.

Fantastic news...you really deserve this :-4

Dr. G

I'm so proud of you -- my warmest congratulations to you, my lovely friend :-4

WOW!!!!!! Well done you!

I work in the Clinical Research Industry, so know better than most how bl00dy difficult it is to get a foothold in Research! Congratulations and very well done!

Well done Doc. I love it when a plan comes together
