Now on ScienceBlogs: The Galaxy's Biggest Valentine
The Corpus Callosum is an occasional journal of armchair musings, by a suburban, reality-based, slightly-left-of-center guy, who reserves the right to be highly irregular at times. Topics: social commentary, neuroscience, politics, science news. Mission: to develop connections between hard science and social science, using linear thinking and intuition; and to explore the relative merits of spontaneity vs. strategy.
Corpus Callosum is written by a psychiatrist at a small community hospital somewhere in the USA. Email to cc.scienceblogger at gmail dot com.

I'm sure everyone has read about this by now, but every once in a while I just speak up to add to the resonance in the echo chamber. If this is confirmed, it would be a flagrant illegal act by...
