Piecing together what happened in New York last weekend.

Actually, my memories of the semi-spontaneous confluence of ScienceBlogs sciblings in the vicinity of the Seed mothership this past weekend are quite vivid, and I'll put up a proper post on that later today.

But in the event that I hadn't remembered things so clearly, and had to piece it all together from what came home on my digital camera, my reflections on the last few day might be distorted.

I might end up with something like this:

Rob: You know what this place needs?

Chad: More physical science bloggers?

Rob: Mmm-hmm. There're lots of biologists, but they're small enough that I think we can take them.

PZ: I don't think you'll be doing that. Our minions are everywhere.

Unholy army of poison frogs: What PZ said.

Or maybe it happened like this ...

The bloggers with an interest in brains and neuroscience (including
Carl, Mo, and Evil Monkey) gather to plot.

James's doubt might require an additional island as Evil Monkey tests a snack cake for psychotropic effects.

Mo demonstrates a way to use a digital camera to perform a lobotomy.

Dave politely but firmly declines a lobotomy.

OK, so a bunch of us sciencebloggers went to New York City this weekend. This is something that we were trying to do for almost a year now. Sure, many of us Sciblings have met one-on-one on occasion, but this was an opportunity to get many of us together all in the same place at the same time, to…
