Proof

I have just about had it with people rolling their eyes when I tell them I am working in Jamaica this summer on a very important research study. My announcement is usually followed with a reply such as, "wow, what a tough life," or "that must be such a hard job," or an oldie but a goodie..., "do you need another research associate for such a difficult job?" So, I am settling this once and for all with incontrovertible visual evidence that we are indeed hard at work over here. Below is a photo I took of my colleague Darrell Hull working really hard the other day while everyone else was having a great time. How about a little sympathy people!?
(OK, so this is the "can't beat 'em, join 'em" line of defense.)
