Lots of very interesting things in this week's C&EN:
- C&EN's obituary for Carl Djerassi, by Corrinna Wu
- Fun Andy Brunning post on aphrodisiacs -- it doesn't appear that we have many working options.
- Exciting news that chemists are getting start-ups funded from Lisa Jarvis.
- The latest report on progress towards Yucca Mountain (by Jessica Morrison)
- Isn't about damn time that Nevada took one for the team? (said someone who does not live in Nevada)
- This BASF "brainstorming tour" is interesting, but kinda weird. I wonder if good ideas come from it? (by Alex Scott)
- You have GOT to see this "poster shirt" idea. It's completely bizarre, and kind of awesome (by Jyllian Kemsley.)
Personally, I think Harry Reid and nuclear waste belong together and Yucca Mountain is as good a place as any for both of them. Sooner rather than later.
