progress?

I am attempting to work as quickly as I can to finish my data analysis; unfortunately, the machine that I am process all of my samples through is quite slow and the learning curve is fairly steep.  It took about 8 hours for all my samples to run, which means I did not have any time to analyse them. While the samples were running, I worked on making cation and anion standard graphs so that we can figure out the concentration of each sample.  The machine automatically does this, but Dr. Becker insists that doing it by hand is a better educational experience.  I agree with him.

It was a slow but productive day.  If only I could have another week of these…
