  • New Scientist 8 Sep _ 4
    Interesting review of early Earth. I didn't know snowball earth lasted one billion years 1800 - 800 million years ago. There is also a wacky article interviewing a Chinese science fiction writer. Some of the letters to the editor are artfully written. MP4 recording     MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element.

    We work through the four books of the Essay. We look at the fundamentals to knowledge, of substances, modes and relations, then simple and complex ideas, the use and abuse of language, and finally the fourth book about the quality of knowledge.

  • Molecular tour of Vitamin C
    This crafty vitamin (a chemical you cant make youself) is highly oxidised ribrose sugar. Otherwise it is a standard tour which I hope I am improving on. MP4 recording     MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element.

    Alot on self awareness, and emerging science news. Interesting to hear the human impact on the Sereangetti. Typing and the general idea of online tests for Parkinsons disease seems worth a look, the way scientist go about doing the science seams to me the really interesting thing here.
