Just like we did last year at about the same time, Sheril, Abel and I went to Duke and talked to the students of the 'Science and the Media' class taught by Misha Angrist.
We talked about science blogging, got some great questions from the students, and then went out for lunch - it was a lovely day here in the Triangle today.
