The Return of Berube

by Mark Trodden

If you are a blogospheric veteran, you will have been aware of one of its most prolific members – the multi-talented, deep, and laugh-out-loud funny Michael Berube, whose blog was one of the finest out there before he mothballed it in January of this year. If you are a newcomer to blogs, then you missed out big time, and you could have a fine time browsing the archives.

I am, however, delighted to report that Michael is joining one of our favorite group blogs – Crooked Timber. I’m waiting eagerly for his first post, and the familiar flowing prose and brutal takedowns.

Welcome back Michael!

    My favorite remains the memorable Sloppy Appropriations of Thomas Kuhn Restaurant Imbroglio.

    Doesn’t Clifford knit? I think I remember a post where he mentioned this somewhere…

    You can’t spell Berube without rube.





    • Cosmic Variance Cosmic Variance is a group blog by people who, coincidentally or not, all happen to be physicists and astrophysicists:
      • Daniel Holz
      • JoAnne Hewett
      • John Conway
      • Julianne Dalcanton
      • Mark Trodden
      • Risa Wechsler
      • Sean Carroll
      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.
