"but i'd have to build a consistent centrifuge. How would I do that? I can spin something in the zero-g environment of the lab easily enough, but how do I spin it at a constant rate across multiple experiments?
Ooooh! I don't need a constant rate! I just need a string with a mark in the center!" (page 208).
