I recently realized that the office assignments among postdocs in Caltech's theoretical condensed matter physics group were arranged by hair.
Room 131 consists entirely of postdocs who are going seriously bald, whereas Room 130 consists entirely of postdocs with luxuriously flowing manes.
Coincidence? I think not.

I still sometimes regret cutting short my chances with the LFHCfS.
The acronym isn't familiar, but I will guess by context that you mean the AIR stuff.
The summer between my junior and senior year was my best chance to join. As Jaideep said after I shaved, "You looked Amish!" and "You shouldn't have shaved. You could scare small children!" (These are slightly paraphrased despite the quotation marks.)
Yeah, the Luxuriant Flowing Hair Club for Scientists. :)
Maybe I should revive the Bad Combover Watch when liveblogging this year's March Meeting. On the other hand, since I'll be on the job market pretty soon, maybe I shouldn't.
"What happens at the March Meeting stays at the March Meeting."
What hair falls out at the march meeting stays at the march meeting?
