Blast from the Past

Today's theme at work is: let's have you do something you haven't thought about since college. For me, this consisted of calculating the heat loss of sodium hydroxide out of a storage vessel, and then attempting to design an insulation and heat trace system to compensate for these losses. Just for the record, I graduated from college 11 years ago. Digging up and dusting off that knowledge from the inner workings of my twisted brain was painful to say the least.

None of the answers to the equations I worked through turned out to be 42. What a bummer...

Talk about headache inducing, but the masochistic thing is that I've enjoyed the exercise. I know...weird, huh?

Back to your regularly scheduled lives.
