Never let it be said that you can’t teach an old blog new tricks. In the interests of broadening our fan appeal and staying au courant, Cosmic Variance is bringing in a new contributor. Julianne Dalcanton has been a longtime commenter, and is also an astrophysicist at the University of Washington. We’ve set up her own author page and everything. Everyone welcome Julianne! In the immortal words of Pink, we better get this party started.

Cosmic Variance is a group blog by people who, coincidentally or not, all happen to be physicists and astrophysicists:
Our day (and night) jobs notwithstanding, the blog is about whatever we find interesting — science, to be sure, but also arts, politics, culture, technology, academia, and miscellaneous trivia. We have similar outlooks on many things, widely disparate opinions about others, and will do our best to keep the discourse reasonably elevated.

Hi Julianne! Don’t break anything unless it needs breaking.

Hi Julianne, Welcome !!! Aren´t you a bit afraid that by becoming an author here, somehow the universe will conspire to make you to move to California?
January 15th, 2007 at 12:23 pm
Been there, done that. I’m thinking the effect might just be a drag to the west coast.
January 15th, 2007 at 2:01 pm
Welcome, Julianne! Hmm, another west coast blogger. Looks like CV might need to institute an affirmative action program for the rest of the country. At least you’re not based in California.

Welcome Julianne!
Saw your photo and thought of a caption:
“My Very Educated Mother Just Showed Us Nine Planets”
I guess it’s a few months too late for it now that Pluto has been demoted.
January 15th, 2007 at 4:04 pm
I will hold the East coast at all costs.
January 15th, 2007 at 6:33 pm
At all coAsts, you mean? (Awful, I know that…)
And yes, welcome Julianne!
January 15th, 2007 at 7:33 pm
Awesome! This just means even more edifying posts to read while avoiding other things. Coincidentally, one of those things I’m avoiding is actually finishing up my grad school application to the University of Washington for astronomy! Maybe I ought to mention Cosmic Variance in my statement of purpose…

UW representing!

Welcome! And there’s nothing wrong with California (well, except for the record low temps messing with the citrus crops, the state budget, the governor, the faultlines …)

JD has time for this? Kids, Treasury proposals, classes, grad students….
I am not worthy.
January 16th, 2007 at 4:39 am
Yay! One more source of Knowledge!
Welcome Julianne!
January 16th, 2007 at 5:05 pm
Welcome Julianne ! Will look forward to your posts.
January 16th, 2007 at 6:18 pm
Welcome Julianne! It was great to see you at AAS!
January 16th, 2007 at 7:25 pm
LOL!!

A bit late for the welcome but nevertheless a very welcome addition to one of my favourite blogs. Imagine if we’re still reading what will we be equivalent to this bog the next time your comet comes round, now how’s that for optimism
