Blog response

I enjoy the study of chemistry because I like to keep myself aware of how the world around me works. I like to be able to help people understand the world, too. For example, today someone said-"The Hindenburd? the giant helium baloon?" I knew how to respond to that- "No, it was a hydrogen baloon."

I guess I'm intrinsicallymotivated to study chemistry, because I like to learn.

Thomas, very interesting observations on your motivation. I remember the discussion of the Hindenburg, and you were very knowledgeable about hydrogen vs. helium. I can definately appreciate your intrinsic motivation to learn chemistry.
