		<description>If only the term denoted one who gets a lot of boffin, I might have stuck with a straight science ticket instead of veering off into the applied sciences.  As for a boffin club, didn&apos;t that end with &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plato&apos;s_Retreat&quot;&gt;Plato&apos;s Retreat&lt;/a&gt;?</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Boffins, boffins, boffins! I haven&apos;t heard that word in a while and now I can&apos;t stop saying boffin. boffin.&lt;/em&gt;

Does the term &lt;strong&gt;backroom boffin &lt;/strong&gt;give you an even bigger rise?

I wish I was a backroom boffin but all I am is a boffin of buffoonery.</description>
