Welcome to the lunch room -- 319 Wartik. Usually, we have our lab meetings here. ( Yong: "Are you kidding me? We don't have lunches when we have meetings.") Yeah, that is true. Business is business. You are not allowed to laugh when your director is present. (Ross: "That is not true! I always tell so many jokes to you guys.") Well, well, that is true too. But without David, we can't have any fun. He is a real spider man in this lab. His cobweb extends to all the "SUPER COMPUTERS" in the headquaters. (Yeah, it may be sad but we will trade our headquaters to Dr. Mokova for the primate-sex-chromosomes-i-don't-know.) In fact, he named the computers with cartoon characters, which I totally have no idea, poor me Chinese!!! Also he is fully credited for the lab's "R Dossier". (Are you familiar with R? If not, then this is for you beginners.)

Oh, Bob is included. He is another funny guy with a homepage @ www.bumblebeagle.org . You remember him? Right, he is the fater of "KILLER BEES". What a world!
Yeah, Minmei is here as well. Coz she is a girl, i will never call her monster-of-chicken-wings. That is a rumor. Someone said she eats more than Bob. Bet me!
Ross: Hmmm - this is more obtuse than the cartoon character names for the computers, but I'm glad someone is having fun. By the way, you are REQUIRED to laugh at the director's jokes.

Hanya (now a researcher at NIH) reminds us of an enduring story about our comrade Hao: "Still remember how I introduced him to Laura - This is Who, Laura said What? Hao said Hao!!!!"
