Am very glad some non-biologists out there find this stuff interesting (and my ramblings decipherable) =D<br /><br />And yes, Bruce, while the sky is interesting in its own way (particularly up in the mountains, at night, in the winter...), there are extraterrestrial-seeming worlds right at our feet, and that's what I'm trying to hint at somehow, and point people towards. More invisible worlds can only make one's worldview bigger, so why limit yourself to one particular aspect of it?<br /><br />@The Lorax: I'm still staying here too, don't you worry! More than enough of me to go around, at least enough to bother people ;p (my bosses present and future may be less than satisfied with this attitude, however >_>)Psi Wavefunctionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10829712736757471647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3643556495084083743.post-499859857139423082011-07-05T21:27:58.106-07:002011-07-05T21:27:58.106-07:00IGrats!

I took my youngest kid to Chapters a couple of days ago, to pick out a popular science magazine. There were half a dozen astronomy & telescope publications on the racks, but not one microscopy journal. Even the catchall science magazines, like Discover & American Scientist, seemed to be dominated by astrophysics stuff (and the microbiology articles I saw were slanted heavily toward the prokaryotes). Maybe people need to be reminded that the real fun isn't up in the sky (what do people see in those those fuzzy dots & purplish smudges anyway? :-D ) but down in the ditch, where the little invisibloids are doing things that make your hair stand on end.Deuterostomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17529325550268416454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3643556495084083743.post-52618695102667062122011-07-05T13:07:24.016-07:002011-07-05T13:07:24.016-07:00That new blog sounds promising-- I have a passing ...That new blog sounds promising-- I have a passing interest in protists but am not a biologist. <br /><br />Also, the banner image is really pretty!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03968539146840489973noreply@blogger.com
