So for my next update, I wanted to introduce everyone to where I work.  I think I may have mentioned I am a grad student / researcher at the moment working towards my PhD in Mechanical Engineering.

"Dressed" up for a day at work:

I work at the Drexel Plasma Institute, which recently relocated to Camden New Jersey at the Camden Waterfront Technology Center:

We are on the 5th floor which gives us some very nice views of both Philadelphia and Camden.  This is the view from my lab:

Ben Franklin Bridge:

Camden:

In general, I work on Plasma for environmental applications and green chemistry.  More specifically, I have been working on projects for hydrogen production and CO2 emission reduction for refineries.  I actually work with some very dangerous gases (hydrogen sulfide - rotten egg smell) so safety is important, and we have special fume hoods designed for this:

A closer view of the most important equipment:

and for analysis:

And my plasma discharge:

and an action shot:

believe it or not that column of plasma is approximately 3000 K, and we have insulated it well enough with air flow that I can put my fingers on the quartz tube around it.

And, after a hard day working with smelly stuff, I always enjoy:

Camden!  Ah, those pics bring back memories.  I spent 3 years on the other side of the RCA building.  I love the Ben Franklin bridge; used to run across it a couple of times a week.

Love looking through the tour guy's… great job. Now we need a tour for guys with very narrow girl waists  ::)

[Geo]

brilliant updates . . . keep 'em comin'

[Giles]

Toms dad died suddenly very recently.  The last thing he needs is to be worrying about the world tour.  I'll work out what to do.

But far more importantly, please join me in sending our heart felt commiserations to Tom and his family.

Chin up Tom.

And guys, tom pm'ed me about sending the jeans to me (for martinchris), but I told him it's ok, and he should not worry about the jeans now. I'm sure u guys are ok that the WT take a short break now?

[Seul]

Of course - and I'm sure I speak for all involved.

[elclintor]

I'm so sorry for your loss Tom…

[jimmy]

sorry to hear of your loss tom.

[Giles]

I'm hoping that Tom can get these back to NYC for the weekend - though I suspect that checking his PM's or emails is not top of his priorities right now.

If so, I will pick them up and take over the rest of Toms leg…....G

[premo]

Tom, my condolences! Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.
