What significant things have I done today?

[pieces o nine]

I maintained a placid, congenial demeanor even as my supervisor issued another "but we can't do  that" directive violating both industry standards in common usage since the 16th century and basic common sense.

Just returned from official trip to the BASF in Ludwigshafen where I visited the Chlor-Alkali plants and had discussions about the revision of the reference document for best available technologies (BREF) that will start end of September in Sevilla.
Can't say that I enjoy the prospects of visiting the hottest city in the whole of Europe (where currently the temperature drops to 35°C at night ).

Smoked 30 saury, a couple of salmon filets, a chicken and a lovingly seasoned piece of pastured side pork (mmmm....  homemade bacon).


My lungs feel terrible.

Today I boosted the Swedish economy.  No, not the usual massive porn imports, but large quantitities of Akzo-Nobel wood preservative plastered all over my parents' house.

I just yesterday had emission data of an Akzo Nobel Chlor-Alkali plant on my desk. Coincidence?
And btw, I thought Sweden was a net exporter of porn.

Visited two museums today. One for the Berlin U-Bahn (underground railway, tube for the British) , the other the Museum der Dinge (museum of things/objects) wich currently has an exhibition on "evil things", i.e. objects that are crimes against good taste. There were also some machines such things can be destroyed with like a pressurized air driven hammer and axe, a stomper (with boot at lower end) and one machine that could roll over those things with something that looked like the undercarriage (and wheel) of a large airplane.

These were not the worst objects by far!!!

Btw, here is a picture of that hammer machine (without the compressor)

Actually, I don't mind that dust pan.  Provided it wasn't used as a decorative piece, but just for sweeping up.

If the salt & pepper thing were one piece I would think them wonderful for an experiment, see, if both are attached the user must cover the holes in one side to use the other. I can imagine the uncomfortable looks of the people at the dinner table first considering to use it and then having to grab a tit and shake in order to use it.

Why am I thinking this stuff?
