A man, a plan, a canal

My plan here is to discuss science related material: everything from recent publications and media hype to my biased observations on the processes of research, publication, and science education. As a goal, I'd like to update the site two or three times a week, but even that may be pie in the sky. We'll find out soon enough, like all good organic chemistry students, that the experimental yield is usually miserably lower than the theoretical yield.
