Secret Science Trifecta

I have to hand it to Dorian and Margaret of the Secret Science Club- they have been extremely busy this month. Today, I'll be heading down for the third Secret Science Club event of the month. Here's a hearty high-five and a heartfelt thanks to these two pillars of science popularization. How about an appropriate song to accompany a science pilgrim on his subway ride to Brooklyn? I've never heard this particular version of Science Friction by XTC, dating to 1976, but it has a rawness that the band sadly grew out of:





There won't be any science friction at the beautiful Bell House, that I can guarantee!

You're welcome, Anna! I like to have an international blogroll, and I like the psychological perspective you bring to your subject matter.

Stay craggy, my friend!
