A couple went to Las Vegas for their honeymoon, and checked into a suite at a hotel. When they got to their room they both detected a bad odor. The husband called down to the front desk and asked to speak to the manager.
He explained that the room smelled very bad and they would like another suite. The manager apologized and told the man that they were all booked because of a convention. He offered to send them to a restaurant of their choice for lunch compliments of the hotel and said he was going to send a maid up to their room to clean and to try and get rid of the odor.

To millions of people whose knowledge of crime labs comes from television shows such as CSI, Bones, Crossing Jordan and Quincy M.E., the forensic experts who work at such labs seem to be infallible scientists who use validated scientific techniques to follow the evidence to the truth, regardless of where it leads.

CSI has been recognized as the most popular dramatic series internationally by the Festival de Télévision de Monte-Carlo, with a worldwide audience estimated to surpass 73.8 million viewers in 2009. Once again, in 2011 CSI has been considered as the most watched drama series in the world.
