Important Announcement: Pure Pedantry Takes a Co-Blogger!

So I have a spectacular announcement. Very soon this blog will be taking on a co-blogger, the lovely and wonderful Kara Contreary. Kara Contreary is currently a Economics PhD student at the London School of Economics. I am excited that she is willing to join me, and I think that an economist-in-training will bring a valuable new perspective to ScienceBlogs.com.

(We debated whether economics can be considered a science. Whether you believe that it can, a lot of stuff we talk about here has economic implications that frankly I am utterly unqualified to talk about.)

In any case, as I prepare to welcome Kara I will be making some changes to the site. Please pardon our dust in the meantime. You will be able to find out more about her when she gets her profile up and starts posting.

Excellent.

I see she agrees with me that economics is a science. Only in science do people get excited over straight lines, dots and crosses...
