Biologist!

Endpoint: Vanessa Kind has the last word

'Twas brillig and the slithy Gove

Did gyre and gimble in the House

All mimsy were the ministers

And the Training and Development Agency out-dowse

'Beware the biologist, my son!

The plants that bite, the

quadrats that catch!

Beware the psychology bird and shun

The frumious physicist!'

He took his chemical sword in hand:

Long time the green-leaved foe he sought -

So rested he by the periodicity tree,

And stood awhile in thought.
