We've got a host for Scientia Pro Publica 43!

Just a quick note to let you know that we do have a host for the upcoming regularly scheduled edition of Scientia Pro Publica, which will publish on 25 October! That host writes the blog, Traversing the Razor, under the pseudonym, Geophilo.

If you wish to host Scientia Pro Publica on any other Monday in 2010 [see schedule], please do let me know. We are getting enough submissions (50+) that we can publish more frequently so each submission is less likely to overwhelm the reading public, and is more likely to receive the attention that it deserves.

Scientia Pro Publica (Science for the People) -- "Scientia Pro Publica 40: Answers to 28 popular and not-so-popular questions" -- was published by Alvaro at his blog, Sharp Brains.

Scientia Pro Publica 39 Now Published!

Nam et ipsa scientia potestas est (And thus knowledge itself is power)
-- Sir Francis Bacon.


Scientia Pro Publica (Science for the People) -- "Scientia Pro Publica 39" -- was published yesterday by ME at my new blog, Punctuated Equilibrium, hosted by The Guardian. Because I was traveling these past two weeks and therefore, without internet access nearly the entire time, several people generously helped me collect these stories so I could share them with you and with the Guardian readers. My special thanks go to Akshat, who generously invested god-knows-how-much-time sniffing out some of the wonderful stories I linked, and I would also like to thank David Shiffman for nominating two fine stories, too.

The next scheduled issue will be published 27 September by Alvaro at SharpBrains. At this time, it appears that the last open host slot is in the process of being filled, however, if the number of submissions once again climbs past 60 or so, I will once again schedule weekly editions so the public is not overwhelmed by our productivity, so be ready to volunteer to host when that happens [see schedule].
