My good friend Bill Kendrick of Tuxpaint fame just posted an article on Facebook on "Optical Rotation", tangentially related to the meaning of Dextrose. From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_rotation: "In fact, one name for glucose, dextrose, refers to the fact that it causes linearly polarized light to rotate to the right or dexter side"
Thought I'd pass it along. cheers, Sameer -- Dr. Sameer Verma, Ph.D. Associate Professor, Information Systems Director, Campus Business Solutions San Francisco State University http://verma.sfsu.edu/ http://opensource.sfsu.edu/ http://cbs.sfsu.edu/ http://is.sfsu.edu/ _______________________________________________ Marketing mailing list Marketing@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/marketing
