- This thread at ItP has gone in an interesting direction, where facts are being examined from multiple perspectives.
- I confess I'd never heard of the "findenser" before.
- Interesting to see a chemical manufacturing industry critic on the DuPont LaPorte incident.
- Beryl Lieff Benderly has more of Dr. Naveen Sangji's comments at ACS Boston.

- Mitchell's post on George Whitesides' ACS Boston talk.

UPDATE: From the comments, I missed this piece by Ash (which I think is really important) on livetweeting scientific conferences.
