This email captured my attention:

Science Faculty is requesting content for their November Issue of Science Alliance, their schools outreach newsletter (more info on Science Alliance at: http://www.science.usyd.edu.au/school/index.shtml). If you have anything suitable, please let me know.

I resisted the urge to laugh maniacally (schools? Young, malleable minds! Mwah hah hah hah!!), and instead peered over my steepled fingers at the screen,

"Ex-cellent."

But seriously folks, there is potential here. They do a newsletter, and want contributions! I shall have to stir my creative juices and engage in some serious cogitation. Meanwhile, amuse yourself with this little science communication skit that Georg passed on to me just before I went on leave: "How to create a new generation of scientists".

About the Rat

Black Knight is interested in the interaction of science (as a day job and as a way of thinking) with his family, the wider community and literature. And tormenting students. Frequently polemical, sometimes serious, and hopefully always entertaining more
