More research...
Thursday, 10 November 2011 01:17 amSo, there was a topic on the NaNoForums about the strange things you end up researching as part of your Nano, and I thought I'd keep track of the stuff I end up looking up as I work my way through, because something ALWAYS pops up, no matter how well you researched things at the start.
So far, I have:
Symptoms of hypothermia
Cherenkov radiation (Such a pretty blue! Pretty lethal blue, too, I imagine. XD )
How far is it to ''the horizon''?
Update 15/11: Carbonated water; does it contain carbonic acid
What would the effect be on the Earth (i.e. and similar planets) if we had no Moon? (PDF)
Edit: Yes I AM up late, I took a nap earlier. Shush.
And I only just realised how appropriate my music choice is, haha. I've not listened to this artist in years (since... 2005, probably?), I dug the CD out for the first time in forever:
"Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten"
Natasha Bedingfield - Unwritten
Edit2:
Haha, someone else that says "enbiggen". (I didn't think it was considered an actual word - just a jokey mash-up of "make bigger" and enlarger. Our work photocopier is a little unfriendly, and not the cleverest beast in the world, so "I'm going to use the enbiggener" was a logical progression from "enlarge")
