Being Slashdotted

Sadly, this blog has suffered serious radio silence due to other priorities, but I couldn't result pointing out that NSCL has been Slashdotted, a first that I'm aware of. It's interesting to see the article sliced and diced by a smart crowd, though the conversation does veer all over the place, from science fiction to discussions of quarks and gluons. Some researchers would be taken aback by such unfiltered bantering about their work.

Science communication done right
