Science tattoos

I can think of at least 20 regular readers who need to look at Carl Zimmer's collection of science tattoos immediately.

You know who you are. Get over there.

That was fun. Even with the explanations, I don't get them all, but that's ok. Some were truly spectacular!

HHhhhhmmmmmmmmmmm............ yet again........

Signout reader named Benjamin Langer, who himself has a very nice critical piece on intelligent design in the current edition of SCQ.

I think people differ greatly on this issue. For example, if it were completely unidentifiable as my own, I would have no problem with a picture of my naked ass being posted on the Internet. Others would be absolutely horrified by the prospect.
