Theoretical Musings
Dave Bacon is a theoretical ski bum who is also a pseudo professor. His research is on quantum computing, his scientific passions extend to everything in physics, mathematics, computer science and beyond, and his personal pleasures include making wine, playing poker, skiing, camping, and daydreaming (although not all of those at the same time.)
Nothing he says on this blog should be construed as having anything to do with his employer or his dog.

I always meant to ask (or, maybe I did once?) if you have a Bacon number. If you do, then you likely also have an Erdös-Bacon number, which is the amalgamation of the two.

I know that I had a comment on Erdos-Bacon on some ScienceBlog about a year ago, as I know someone with EB# = 3.
In Science Fiction and Biomedical publication, I've defined the Asimov number...

I'm very happy to see there are other sluggites here. We seem to be well outnumbered by the XKCD fans, though.
OT but relevant to this blog;
I read on Physics World site about researchers claiming that there is variation of duclear dekay rates. Very difficult to measure but it seems to correlate to solar activity.
