Dear Roary,

I sure got a chuckle out of your post. You made my day, Roary.

Edward. the beserk, mad scientist.

Perhaps in keeping with my new title, I should mention to you that
as a research scientist at the Beltsville, Maryland Insect Physiology
Laboratories, I tortured out from just beneath the brain of the
American cockroach, called Periplanita americana, many brain associated
organs called corpoa allata, and managed to keep about 95 percent of
these American cockroaches alive for follow on experiments.

How's that for qualifying as a Mad Scientist, eh?
