Blogger Word Verification: Boton

THE PROFESSOR, an old man, stands in front of a chalkboard, scratching out what appears to be a molecular diagram.

PROFESSOR

Boton: both the most dense and the largest of the elements. Discovered at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean along the earth's volcanic vents, with over one thousand electrons orbiting one single proton, a phenomenon which calls into question all previous scientific knowledge.
[turns around and faces the audience/class] But let's face it: what does it matter? I'm old, I'm falling apart, and I've never been in love. Let me give you all a little piece of advice. Forget Boton. Forget the scientific method. Forget lab coats and mathematics and chalk! [throws down the chalk] Don't waste your life on this crap! Find someone who loves you and love them back. That's what life is about! Not Boton! You can't love Boton! You can't hug Boton! You can't share intimacy with Boton! Screw Boton, and screw all of you if you can't see the truth!

Walks out of the room. Lights down.
