...ought to hope you find yourself a comfortable bar stool no later than 8:30. And so we all make our way to Tommy's House of Pizza. Seemingly with self-respect, but really because it doesn't matter at that point, Tommy's, with its sesame crust, schizophrenic music superimposed on top of a close-captioned for the hearing-impaired rebroadcast of the Montel Williams show and unseemly Mortal Kombat video-game junkies, seems to be the only (and necessary) option, now.

The researchers performed a "depth profile" on the meteorite, and although no pahs were found on its crust, they were found inside the rock. Had any of Earth's abundant PAHS seeped in, says Zare, he would have expected to find more contamination on the outside than in the interior...
