Natural Science 301 Guidelines

This is an open forum area for all members for discussions on all issues of science and origins. This area will and does get volatile at times, but we ask that it be kept to a dull roar, and moderators will intervene to keep the peace if necessary. This means obvious trolling and flaming that becomes a problem will be dealt with, and you might find yourself in the doghouse.

As usual, Tweb rules apply. If you haven't read them now would be a good time.

      Assuming you're not just being silly, the actual term is "up and at 'em". The meaning is to get going on a quest or project. It is generally attributed from a command to attack the French issued by the Duke of Wellington to his troops at Waterloo - "'Up, guards, and at 'em."

        The article said up n atom or something like that, so if it was a joke it went way over my head.
