Follow me on Twitter to get these, and more, in something closer to Real Time (all my tweets are also imported into FriendFeed where they are much more easy to search and comment on, as well as into my Facebook wall where they are seen by quite a different set of people):

I went to this today (8:30am-2:50pm only) and will blog about it later.

And asteroid tracking and deflection technology is fast becoming one of the hot issues of the day. It appears so often…
This Extraordinary Claim Requires Extraordinary Evidence!
"Nothing travels faster than light, with the possible exception of bad news, which follows its own rules." -Douglas Adams My inbox is on fire today with messages about this story about neutrinos breaking the speed of light: What's going on here?
