The best thing about Saturdays, is the lab is not as crowded. During the week we are fairly bustling with activity. There are reports to write, new experiments to design, and data that has to be cataloged. On Saturdays, I can pretty much just tinker around with things.
One of the more popular mis-conceptions about the reanimated dead is that they are slow moving. As a rule, that's not always the case. It really depends on:
- the manner of their death,
- the physical condition prior to death,
- how long they have been dead,
- whether or not I've had time to inject their tissue with Paracanthenol.
Paracanthenol is a compound we developed here to restore and optimize the neural pathways that run from the brains muscle controls, to the necrotic flesh. We've seen mobility improvements up to 120% by injecting the muscles and allowing the chemical to work it's magic over a 72 hour period. The subjects get a corresponding increase in strength and agility as well. You have to be careful with these experiments. Early on, we lost a few lab personnel, and that made us take a bit more care with the safety procedures. On the upside, we did get a few more subjects for the experiments. I was previously worried about losing my grad student Alexis at the end of our funding period this year. Seems like she will be staying with us after all. :-)
Are you guys watching
House? Oooh that's a great television program. So many people decry the medium of television as a wasteland. I myself used to view it as such, but I'm starting to have hope again.
