There's pros and cons of a big church. Cons is I don't get to know everybody, I don't get to go to their ballgame, I don't get to marry everybody, but the pros are you get all this community, 800 ushers come in to serve, getting there at 7 in the morning on their day off and coming in on Saturday to make all those wafers.

I needed a way to have the platter continuously spinning while I'm moving the record back and forth. I went to a fabric store. When I touched this hairy stuff - felt - I found it. I rubbed spray starch on both sides and ironed it until it became a stiff wafer. After that, I was able to stop time.

Once, Naseeruddin Shah told me that the wafer shop was the best acting school that I could have attended. And I completely agree. I observed every customer very minutely and picked up some quirk or the other. Later, I used those experiences while playing different characters.

My old modus operandi was, if you're going to have a grilled cheese and bacon sandwich, don't have one, have two. If you're going to have vanilla wafers, you have the whole box.

A Big Mac - the communion wafer of consumption.

Canadian Author

Used to describe sweet, crispy treats often paired with desserts like ice cream.

Dessert Context

Don't confuse wafers with bread; wafers are usually sweet and crisp unlike bread.

Not Bread

Wafers can be eaten alone as a snack or used in various recipes for texture.

Versatile Snack

In technology, a wafer isn't edible but is a base for electronic parts.

Tech Material

Production of semiconductor wafers involves precision and cleanliness.

Manufacturing Precision

Tech-related wafer terms like 'fabrication' or 'level' are industry-specific jargon.

Specialized Vocabulary

Wafers in religion symbolize a sacred element taken during communion services.

Religious Significance

Communion wafers are plain, taste simple, and focus on symbolic meaning.

Appearance and Taste

Communion wafers have a specific religious use and aren't a casual snack.

Not for Snacking

 The idea is that by shooting a laser at the different solar cells, you can choose which leg you want to move and make the robot walk around. Now, of course, we don't build those one at a time, either. We build them massively in parallel as well. We can build something like one million robots on a single four-inch wafer. So, for example, this image on the left, this is a chip,

 And then here's a really, really big close-up of the little piece of metal. So what we're looking at is a little chunk of metal, and it's shaped like a diving board, and it's sticking out over a ledge. And so I made this thing in nearly the same way as you make a computer chip. I went into a clean room with a fresh silicon wafer,

 So, another strategy we're following is actually to create wafers that we stack together, like an accordion, if you will. So, we stack these wafers together, using the kidney cells. And then you can see these miniature kidneys that we've engineered. They are actually making urine.

 that's the solar cell that's the actual part that generates electricity. Those things have to be manufactured on the substrate. The substrate is the holder for them. The substrate typically is glass or silicon wafer or stainless steel. The solar cell part is only a couple microns,
