Science Procastination Reading (Haven't done this in a while- but got some good ones here)

Category: About writing generally
Posted on: December 6, 2006 8:56 AM, by David Ng

O.K. Here goes:

First up. Most likely the easiest to read piece on LOC technology (Lab on a Chip). Who knew that microfluidics and lithography techniques were so cool? After reading this, you will too. ("Living la Vida Loc(A): A brief insight into the world of "lab on a chip" and microfluidics")

Next up. A McSweeney's list that would also make a perfect slide if your talk was on nuclear energy. Freaky really. ("Nuclear Plant or Retirement Community")

And finally - looking for love? Anyway, this ad on craigslist might fit the bill. ("I'm looking for a man to photophosylate me all night long. -w4m")

By the way, this is the sort of stuff, FILTER is good for. Check it out.
