So this week's American Astronomical Meeting is the current (as I type this, anyway) Buzz in the Blogosphere. Not being an astronomer, though, I'm wondering who's heading to another upcoming meeting...AAAS (that would be American Association for the Advancement of Science) in San Francisco, Feb. 15-19? I know a few other Sciencebloggers will be either in attendance, or else in the area and popping their heads in. Who else out there is in?
