Wednesday Wonderland at #SciAmBlogs

This article was published in Scientific American’s former blog network and reflects the views of the author, not necessarily those of Scientific American


My brain clock thinks it's about 6am, so I hope I do not make too many typos and other mistakes in this post before I crash....and why do bloggers love to post lots of great articles while I am traveling? It takes time to catch up with all of their awesome writing...

Wednesday - yup, the day to introduce the new Video of the Week - see it over on the right-hand-side-bar.

- David Wogan - Update on the Bastrop, TX fires
