From KIMBERLY MARTIN
Not long ago, over a casual pint, a colleague and I were bemoaning the
fact that scientific nomenclature is poorly represented amongst pub names.
To redress what we consider to be a serious imbalance, we compiled the following
list, drawn from all branches of science, for consideration by the breweries:
The Double Helix; The Hardhat and Hammer; The Charming Quark; The Visible
Spectrum; The Voltage Gate; The Neurotic Rat; The Magma Chamber; The Rod
and Cone; The Citation; The Abstract Chemical.
We would like to know if your readers can think of additions to the
above list and if they are aware of any more enlightened pubs in Britain
which already have scientific names.
