An excellent read: 'You mean I have to stop my experiment?' Not all Nobel laureates react the way you might expect.

From C. Lee, and it's terrific: Who Invented These Everyday Items. This is thoughtful: A day to reflect on life, aging and our own mortality.

From Wally, and it's a great idea: Space stations are loud — that's why NASA is making a quiet fan. This is an utterly fantastic read: I … Am Herman Melville!: Sam Weller details the tempestuous collaboration of Ray Bradbury and John Huston on the production of the 1956 movie “Moby Dick.”
