There's no sense in wandering around by yourself wearing a lab coat. You need a group of about 4 people. Everyone needs a hard hat and a clipboard. One or two should wear lab coats, the remainder should wear suits. Wander through office buildings, malls, etc.
BONUS: One person wears white tie.

When I used to work as a field assistant to a land surveyor, I learned that this same principal applies to those orange safety vests that road/construction crews wear. A large portion of my job consisted of hopping people's backyard fences and otherwise trespassing in order to measure things. The only times anybody ever did more than say, "Oh, hi there." were the days when I forgot my vest.
For fun and profit, go buy one of those vests at Wal-Mart, pair it with some dirty jeans, boots, and a tool-belt full of crap, and then go do whatever the hell you want to. Nobody will ever ask questions.

I'm dedicated to binary because it makes all my numbers happy.

I know this thread has died and I really should let it go, but I just found this old, related qwantz comic! Seems like lab coats will have different effects on someone depending on his/her...species?
OK, it can die now.

Guys you should totally register for this and join the xkcd team! Rath358 started us off and we're kinda small so the more people who join us, the better for our team and, hopefully, for humanity!

No! not yet!
I still think the Nobel commitee line has a different meaning:
it's not like anyone actually calls up the Nobel committee to double-check things,so you can tell anyone that you won a Nobel Prize.

Its been over 2 years since this was published and I still laugh every time I see it.
The emphasis on "BUY" really does it for me.

I have 3 lab coats, not a single one did I buy, I just take them home on the last day of anything in which I'm given a lab coat. Jobs/College you name it.
