| belkinsa | But I'm trying to get the team going. | 12:35 |
| QuantumParadox | So, what is your name and what do you do in life? | 12:35 |
| belkinsa | I'm Svetlana and I'm an undergrad biology student. | 12:36 |
| QuantumParadox | Nice to meet you. I'm James and I ama studnt at RIT in New york adn I study computing security, computer science with a emp. on scientific computing | 12:37 |
| QuantumParadox | and Ihave to do Co-ops so I work in a scientific envirment; NASA, NRAO so fare | 12:37 |
| belkinsa | Nice to meet you too. | 12:37 |
| QuantumParadox | Are you an American? | 12:37 |
| belkinsa | You are lucky that you have Co-Ops in your major. | 12:38 |
| belkinsa | No, I'm Russian but I lived in USA for 20 years now. | 12:38 |
| QuantumParadox | Yup and cool. I like Russia. I took a classs on the rise adn fall of the USSR | 12:38 |
| QuantumParadox | and I love your military music | 12:38 |
| QuantumParadox | the old USSR anthem | 12:39 |
| QuantumParadox | the space race | 12:39 |
| QuantumParadox | and your hitory | 12:39 |
| QuantumParadox | history | 12:39 |
| QuantumParadox | Are you in your 20's? | 12:39 |
| belkinsa | Yup. | 12:39 |
| belkinsa | 23. | 12:39 |
| QuantumParadox | 29 | 12:39 |
| QuantumParadox | I jsut tured 29 | 12:39 |
| belkinsa | But you are a grad student, right? | 12:39 |
| QuantumParadox | Yes | 12:39 |
| QuantumParadox | Well I am in a program that is undergrad + Grad | 12:40 |
| QuantumParadox | so I take both classes | 12:40 |
| * belkinsa also took a Russian history class and liked it (but it went from 1200's to fall of USSR) | 12:40 | |
| QuantumParadox | Just wanted to be honest | 12:40 |
| belkinsa | Sounds like a good idea. | 12:40 |
| belkinsa | Too bad that there isn't something like that for biology at University of Cincinnati or else where. | 12:40 |
| QuantumParadox | See, I been in school for years because I love it. I started out at New Mexico tech for astrophysics and astrobiology at Florida Tech and now computer science, computing security adn a minor in Microelectronics at RIT and I do thigns at Cornell | 12:41 |
| QuantumParadox | My univeirsty history is complcated | 12:41 |
| belkinsa | I know what you mean. There is times when I want to stay in school to just learn about things. | 12:42 |
| QuantumParadox | For your biology I love virology, infectious dieseases and cell bio | 12:42 |
| QuantumParadox | The thing is, I don't want to work unless it is in the space program | 12:42 |
| QuantumParadox | I am not intersted in working for a company to make them rich | 12:43 |
| QuantumParadox | I am intersted in changing the world for the better and I believe i can do that in space sciences | 12:43 |
| belkinsa | I know what you mean and I want to do the same. | 12:43 |
| QuantumParadox | I mean I can help the scientists do their work by making sure thier systems are safe and running smoothly | 12:43 |
| * belkinsa nods | 12:44 | |
| QuantumParadox | I have orked with some of the most intelligent people in the world; NASA JPL, NRAO, CERN and I know I can help them | 12:44 |
| belkinsa | That's good to hear! | 12:44 |
| QuantumParadox | How about you | 12:45 |
| QuantumParadox | What do you want to do? | 12:45 |
| QuantumParadox | What is your interest in Biology? | 12:45 |
| belkinsa | Cell bio, mainly anything with DNA/RNA like DNA repair. | 12:46 |
| QuantumParadox | those protains are interesting for DNA repair | 12:46 |
| QuantumParadox | How come they let some genetic code mutate | 12:46 |
| QuantumParadox | mutate | 12:46 |
| belkinsa | Or how they know that there is a mistake in the DNA. | 12:46 |
| QuantumParadox | I stayed up all night and so my brain is shuttign down | 12:47 |
| QuantumParadox | Yes | 12:47 |
| belkinsa | Go to sleep then! | 12:47 |
| QuantumParadox | Now on April 30, I will be having dinner with my frien Niel Tyson from Cosmos. | 12:47 |
| QuantumParadox | so I am going to tlak to him more about that | 12:47 |
| belkinsa | OMG! Lucky you! | 12:48 |
| QuantumParadox | Have you seen Cosmos | 12:48 |
| belkinsa | Is it a show? | 12:48 |
| QuantumParadox | I know this is IRC and I know people can say anything and get them to beleive them but I am real adn I will meet with him | 12:48 |
| QuantumParadox | Yes, Cosmos on FOX | 12:49 |
| QuantumParadox | I thought you would be watching it | 12:49 |
| QuantumParadox | it's a update to Carl Sagan's Cosmos | 12:49 |
| QuantumParadox | Neil Tyson is hosting it | 12:49 |
| belkinsa | No. I don't watch TV. | 12:49 |
| QuantumParadox | Neither do I. I jsut pirate it from USEnet | 12:49 |
| QuantumParadox | useNET | 12:49 |
| belkinsa | I pirate too. | 12:50 |
| QuantumParadox | I hope you use a VPn | 12:50 |
| QuantumParadox | VPN | 12:50 |
| belkinsa | Or YouTube or have streaming live internet radio for my needs. | 12:50 |
| QuantumParadox | I've been pirating since I was 11 back in 1996 | 12:51 |
| QuantumParadox | I even pirated my neighboor's AOL dial up account. lol | 12:51 |
| belkinsa | I have since, I don't remember. | 12:51 |
| belkinsa | 2008, I think. | 12:51 |
| QuantumParadox | Now I have 10 of terabyites of crap | 12:51 |
| QuantumParadox | man, you are fun to chat with | 12:52 |
| belkinsa | You too. | 12:52 |
| QuantumParadox | so, what brings you from Russia to America | 12:52 |
| belkinsa | IRC is too quiet at times but at the wrong times. | 12:52 |
| belkinsa | My parents. My dad moved to Cincinnati because of grad school (he has his PhD in analytical chemistry ) because the postdoc was the only one that did research in my dad's field. | 12:54 |
| belkinsa | He moved in 1992 then one year later me and mom moved. And I was 2 and half when that happened. | 12:54 |
| QuantumParadox | cool | 12:55 |
| QuantumParadox | Are you now a US citizen | 12:55 |
| belkinsa | Yeah, but I have dual citizenship. | 12:56 |
| QuantumParadox | Cool | 12:56 |
| QuantumParadox | What do you think of Russia invading Ukerian adn taking part of it? | 12:56 |
| QuantumParadox | I heard in Ukran it is Right wing religous people | 12:57 |
| QuantumParadox | But I am not sure for sure | 12:57 |
| belkinsa | I think it's wrong but the problem is that it's history that is powering Russia to do it. Also, I smell another break up of Russia and Ukraine. | 12:58 |
| belkinsa | And another country will form. | 12:58 |
| QuantumParadox | Yup | 13:00 |
| QuantumParadox | Do you Skype or Gtalk | 13:00 |
| QuantumParadox | I would love to voic chat | 13:00 |
| QuantumParadox | if it's cool with you | 13:00 |
| QuantumParadox | My Skype: QuantumParadox | 13:01 |
| QuantumParadox | Gmail: James.QuantumParadox@gmail.com | 13:02 |
| QuantumParadox | If it is cool with you | 13:03 |
| QuantumParadox | Are you still there | 13:04 |
| belkinsa | I don't use those, not even my XMPP. | 13:05 |
| QuantumParadox | oh | 13:08 |
| QuantumParadox | Do you do google hangouts | 13:08 |
| belkinsa | And I only do Hangouts when needed, like for vUDS. | 13:08 |
| QuantumParadox | oh | 13:08 |
| belkinsa | Though, it would be cool to connect to other Ubuntu users that way. | 13:09 |
| QuantumParadox | Lets do a hang out | 13:09 |
| QuantumParadox | I'm up for it if you are | 13:09 |
| belkinsa | Sure. But later on today. I have work to do. | 13:09 |
| QuantumParadox | ok | 13:11 |
| QuantumParadox | My Gmail is James.QuantumParadox@gmail.com | 13:11 |
| QuantumParadox | Add me and we will do one later | 13:11 |
| belkinsa | Sure. | 13:11 |
| QuantumParadox | What is your gamil | 13:12 |
| QuantumParadox | I have to add you ina funny way | 13:12 |
| QuantumParadox | I use a old chat client | 13:12 |
| QuantumParadox | that I have to add you to | 13:12 |
| belkinsa | barsookmud@gmail.com | 13:12 |
| belkinsa | But I hardly use my gmail account. | 13:13 |
| belkinsa | Everything is done via my belkinsa@ubuntu.com or belkinsa@ubuntusense.com e-mail. | 13:13 |
| QuantumParadox | Cool | 13:16 |
| QuantumParadox | So, how did you get intersted in computers | 13:16 |
| QuantumParadox | What did you start out with | 13:16 |
| belkinsa | I think having a windows 3.1 at home as a kid. | 13:47 |

| alejandro | Hello #ubuntu-scientists channel | 15:47 |
| alejandro | Please forgive me for asking a very basic question | 15:48 |
| alejandro | I want to reply to a thread, but I do not have the original email. How would I reply? | 15:48 |

| belkinsa | And i think he joined the team too. | 18:52 |
| belkinsa | And I was right, he did join. | 18:53 |
