Last day of my workshop.
And I simply must direct folks to the piece that is up at the SCQ today. The piece by Hugh Powell (who also contributes over at the always wonderful Inkling), is really what the SCQ is all about. Go check it out - it's called, "MALCOLM GLADWELL WRITES THE INTRODUCTION TO A NEW EDITION OF THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY."
Also, the Science Scouts has gotten a wonderful response, and so new members and new badges will be duly added sometime next week (some of the badge suggestions have been really funny).
And for those of you who haven't had a chance to partake, don't forget about the truth experiment. We're sitting at #12 right now, so it would be nice to break it into the first page.

Those wild and crazy guys over at SCQ have come up with the Order of the Science Scouts of Exemplary Repute and Above Average Physique, an organization of which I am proud to be a member. Maybe the physique bit is a stretch, but what the heck. Members are:

How about advancing the truth experiment by providing a "truth" badge (with link, of course) for those who contribute daily/weekly links from their blogs?
