So we got our awesome liquid-handling robot. I programmed it to do our DNA extractions and ran the simulation (it has a simulation mode where you can run the program and watch a virtual robot on the screen do it rather than have the actual robot do it. How cool is that?!) and it's all set. One problem: I need the specs on the plates we're using. They're Eppendorf plates. Obviously, they don't come with the info (what I need is the length, width, height, well offset and well spacing, down to the 10th of a milimeter). That would be too easy. So I've called up customer support to ask (since I don't have anything that'll measure that accurately here). And of COURSE customer service doesn't have that info readily available, that would be too easy. So I'm listening to the soothing hold music. And looking at LiveJournal.

Villain icon, because I haven't used it in a while.
