I am no card-carrying scientist, but I am passionate about the frontiers the scientific method has opened up. <BR/><BR/>Cheers.Glendon Mellowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03582347493421110738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-978531190643365040.post-42833799785681267512007-10-17T09:27:00.000-04:002007-10-17T09:27:00.000-04:00Just subscribed to your feed.

I love discovering new and intellectual (as opposed to pseudo-intellectual) blogs.<BR/><BR/>Also, I wanted to thank you for the kind words about the design of my blog (designbyseanmcgee.com).<BR/><BR/>It was originally a black and white design meant to be minimalistic. It evolved into this Pepto-Bismaly goodness thanks to <A HREF="http://pinkforoctober.org/" REL="nofollow">http://pinkforoctober.org/</A>. I thought it was a cool campaign, so I changed my stylesheet.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again.<BR/><BR/>-Sean M.

I'll have to watch for that one. <BR/><BR/>Trees are a great way to open up childrens' sense of wonder. Especially lichen. You can tie it in to Peter Rabbit with Beatrix Potter and everything. <BR/><BR/>Please feel free to take a look at my DeviantArt gallery; some of my paintings are in there.Glendon Mellowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03582347493421110738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-978531190643365040.post-73212478832557169322007-10-16T22:13:00.000-04:002007-10-16T22:13:00.000-04:00Brilliant.

Just today I was contemplating the trunk of a tree with my family - it had lichen (algae + fungus), spiders, flies, ants, and all manner of things on it. Close up, I was reminded of the <I>Integral Trees</I> (from a novel of that name by science fiction great Larry Niven) - great leviathan things that grow in <I>The Smoke Ring</I> (title of the sequel).<BR/><BR/>Wonderful drawings, too. You have a real treat of a blog to read.Timothy Millshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00373801153623991221noreply@blogger.com
