Anatomy of a Science Fair Project | Guest Blog, Scientific American Blog Network

Started New Project

I just started a new project this morning and had to bid the DC area farewell as of last Friday. Some of the really nice changes I enjoy are being able to sleep at home every night, dropping off my son at school on my way to work and Westchester/White Plains commuter traffic. Yippieeee!

Australia LUG – Koalas and my Elevator Pitch
