When Alice and I teamed up last month, we realized that we needed a new name - one that was inclusive of both of our identities and reflects where we want this blog to go. Today, we're proud to unveil that new name and a new banner to go along with it.
From here on out, this blog is...
A scientist and an engineer being the change we want to see
Congratulations to Makita for being the first to suggest the name. She'll be receiving a Sb mug as her prize, just as soon as I find her address. And if any of you creative souls want to come up with a better banner for us, we'd love to display it.

Fabulous! I love the tagline! The banner is perfect.

I like the banner, too. One typographical subtlety: I think "being" is a little too small.

I miss Minnow! Can she get a picture as a contributor?

ScienceMama: I miss Minnow too. I'll have to see what I can arrange to make her visage present on the page.

I love it! I'd make "being" larger, too, because that's what I love about you two!

What a nice name, if I say so myself! Actually, it seemed so natural, I'm surprised I was the first to suggest it. And the description is great too.

I like the name -- particularly the subtitle.
