If some male in the physics lab were attracted to Okazaki, she would have been married, been a housewife, and had a good life. Unfortunately for her, this did not happen. I feel kinda sorry for her. If she looked more like Scarlett Johansson she would not be looking for a home right now.

The daily leads the charge! An heroic crackdown on campus! No imposter or hanger-on left behind! Security checkpoints and locked doors to come!

Just an allegory for the Bush administration. Do nothing, get in the way, take your money.

Wow, what a kook! It amazes me that she could be there unchallenged for 4 years.

The comment at the end sounds like it's coming from a jilted lover.

If she wants a "sugar daddy," she would have been hanging out in the medical, law, or business departments, not physics! I guess she really is not "all there."

How come we don't have any graphical supplements in any Okazaki articles, unlike the graphically loaded Kim articles?

If Elizabeth Okazaki's not found on the Stanford campus or in the Palo Alto area, I wouldn't be surprised if she turns up at Berkeley, Davis, or Santa Cruz. She has done similar things in the past at a couple of UC campuses in Southern California. Although she's 40 years old, she still can still get appropriate therapy and turn her life around before it's too late. Most likely, she's afflicted with some type of psychosis. Unfortunately, as long as she's not considered a danger to herself or others, she can't be forced to seek treatment.

A female that not even a building full of physics grad students will touch? My God, man! I think we have the next goatse.cx on our hands.

This story is not very true, because everybody knows that Lukasz is gay and he has a big mouth.

I am shocked that a representative of a California institution such as Stanford, in this day and age of theoretical anti-prejudicenous, is so insensitive to say "I think she wants to be a housewife. I think she doesn’t want to work for a living." This is outrageous. If you do not think that being a housewife is working for a living, you are an idiot. I have done it, and it is much easier to be a professor at Stanford.

It is perhaps notable that an Elizabeth Okazaki (and I have no way to know whether this is the same Elizabeth Okazaki) received a patent with Richard Okazaki and Paul Okazaki for a safety port needle assembly. See http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=HITOFF&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsearch-bool.html&r=1&f=G&l=50&co1=AND&d=PTXT&s1=Elizabeth.INNM.&s2=Okazaki.INNM.&OS=IN/Elizabeth+AND+IN/Okazaki&RS=IN/Elizabeth+AND+IN/Okazaki

"Over the course of that summer, the student described being puzzled by Okazaki’s odd behavior."

“She said that she wanted to date physics students,” he said, “because they could fix the washing machine when it broke.”

Obviously, this woman is severely mentally disturbed if she thinks physics students can do anything useful.

1. Establishing a "property management" system that involved renting a dwelling and getting a "free ride" by subletting enough rooms to cover rent and utilities.
2. "Leveraging" academic facilities to cut living expenses.
3. "Compensated dating" in exchange for "appliance repair" and possibly food, clothing, and spending money.
4. "Auditing" seminars for information and to find potential new "leads."
5. Developing an "exit strategy/retirement plan" that consists of marrying an academic or suing one for "sexual harassment."
Elizabeth Okazaki should forget about studying physics, German, music, film or whatever she was doing and use some of her "creativity" and "survival skills" in the business community, instead of academia. She could probably do quite well for herself. It's better to be successful in business, donate money, and have a university name a building after oneself, instead of getting banned from its campus.

Some of Stanford's top physics faculty are ex-washing machine repair men, I believe. (They need to be good at such gadgets so they can fix up the Rube-Goldberg machines to stabilize the moduli of the Calabi-Yau manifolds they work with.) On a related note, Lenny himself is an ex-plumber, and plumbers are good a fixing leaking washing machines.

Isn't there a security department to take care of problems like this?
