  1. Wow, I have learned a lot about "plasmonic signals" and "radio sound waves" from #supershark
  2. "Nobody uses a chemical weathering agent for oil drilling!" #supershark #wiscon
  3. Ambivalence will always undo the hive mind. #wiscon conversations are the best.
  4. @flyingtrilobite No worries -- will update the post when you have something.
  5. @flyingtrilobite that would be great -- you can mail me at annalee@io9.com when you have the bigger one.
  6. @AlyssaRosenberg Awww, thanks!
  7. @flyingtrilobite Do you have a bigger version where all the text is readable?
  8. @katzish Succinctly and correctly put.
  9. Why do felines love catnip, and what the hell is it, anyway? bit.ly/JBSOFo
  10. @flyingtrilobite OMFG you just made my week. That is SO AWESOME. I am posting about it right now.
  11. @johnklima See you!
  12. @grandmofhelsing Not really. :)
  13. Sharing book recs with @EmilyJiang @toomuchexposition & @charliejane -- we are all pansperminating here at #wiscon
  14. @johnhawks It is my goal to drag you out to Wiscon one of these days/years. Lots of SF authors here who would love to talk to you.
  15. @aemilii Your city fed me a Teddywedger today, for which I am grateful. :)
  16. Here in beautiful Madison, WI for #Wiscon -- my favorite science fiction convention in this time and this volume of space.
  17. @JHoffman6 Ah yes - the days of fish fingers?
  18. @ScienceHsu So many people have mentioned Dune that I'm going to add it -- by popular demand!
  19. @ScienceHsu Not at all - Dune is definitely a great 60s novel. I was just showing the tip of the iceberg.
