Has anyone seen Breaking Bad Season 4 premiere tonight. Bad ass. It was pretty awesome. Can't wait for next episode next week.
My favorite line in tonight's show (this won't spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it) was when Walt said...
"Really, oh so please, tell me, catalytic hydrogenation is it protic or aprotic? Because I forget. And if our reduction is not stereo specific then how can our product be enantiomerically pure? I mean is 1-phenyl-1-hydroxy-2-methyl-amino propane containing of course chiral centers at carbons number 1 and 2 on the propane chain, then reduction to meth-amphetamine eliminates which chiral center is it again? Because I forgot. C'mon help me out professor!"
