#monsterdon "In the kingdom of the blind, the one-eyed man is king!"

Which is a saying I heard once. I don't know if it applies to this situation in any way, but it sure sounds good.

@diazona it's just like how my first grad school adviser was too busy to hold one-on-one meetings so he had "lab meetings" that were just serial one-on-ones with each of us with the rest listening bored because our research was so different that we didn't understand what was going on #monsterdon
