Whenever I reread your Science Fare blog I always get a shiver as it is truly inspirational and represents exactly how I feel. I think it should be a de rigueur foreword to any school or popular science book.

Michael, the 2006 is intending to show the year released, not the year of all the writings. The book was intended as a summation of best articles in blogs for the conference going on this month (last weekend?). They started talking about doing it every year, and maybe for those the content will be limited to the year in question, but since this is the first, they felt free to include works predating 2006.

spacewriter,

Maybe your “verification” did not include a bank account and PIN number!

Or maybe I’m just paranoid.

I’m not entirely sure why a book subtitled “The Best Writing on Science Blogs 2006″ starts off with a post from May, 2005. Anyone else catch that?

Your science fair post is most excellant. The excitement of discovery is one of the greatest feelings we can entertain. I would love to see your post included in the forward of every science book used in our schools. It’s one of the most eloquent I’ve ever read.

BA,

Congrats! The science fair piece is one of your best. Ever thought of starting a “greatest hits” category for posts that have been particularly well received?

Of course you should be number one!!! At least in this book you are appreciated, not like certain “awards” where you were screwed out of the number one spot by the creatures who shall not be named.:)
