I was not a healthcare provider, but had many clients who were.

It wasn't the ATP aspect I thought might not be obvious outside the UK,
it was the 80p aspect.

time since 80p would get you a pint of _anything_ from a barman.

The desire to remain private and/or anonymous used to be a core British value,
but in recent times it has been treated with suspicion - an unfortunate by-
product of the widespread desire for fame. - Chris Middleton,

I got the "eighty p." easily enough.* I had to look up the substance
to find the clever bit.


A little Google gets the process rolling...

* "bioluminescence-for-beverages
** ... Since ATP is a proxy for how much bacteria is present
* "

That's not how you make beer of course :-)

That suggests the biochemist is aware that a beer would
be rich in ATP, as it's a marker of some sort of "activity"
(fermentation???).


snipped

You haven't come even close to the clever bit.

I was going to wait another 24 hours or so...

To a biochemist it goes further if one looks into the role that ATP
plays in living cells:

It is often referred to as the "molecular unit of currency" of
intracellular energy transfer.

That is the clever bit that turns the pun into a fine joke ... ATP as
currency. 80 p. worth in this case.

When you posted that sig, knowing that engineers and scientists always
have their inside humour I thought it best to know more about ATP.

Wikipedia is always a good source for such.

Thanks. I knew - from my O level biology about 40 years ago! - that ATP
is basically what makes muscles work, turning it into ADP. (I may have
remembered some of this wrong.) I didn't know the "currency" nickname
for it though: that's maybe been added since then.

*OBSERVATION that this thread topic is now long DEAD.*

In the past two decades of Usenet examples, one thing is consistent which
is that when the quote level gets to the insane level that the last twenty
posts have had, then you *know* the original technical topic was long gone.

Look above at the last 20 posts for a classic example of this phenomenon.
