In fact it brings me much joy to think that we are not alone and even more comfort knowing that if we are not alone, all of our already sturdy scientific theories will become even more embedded and understood. So to say that these two are equally terrifying, while enjoyable in the aspect of sparking our imagination to consider the biological mysteries of the cosmos, is entirely erroneous to anyone with any sort of scientific mindset.</p> </blockquote>http://utorrent.tumblr.com/post/37744095856http://utorrent.tumblr.com/post/37744095856Tue, 11 Dec 2012 18:19:33 -0500psychedelic physicisttumblr radarutorrent<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/6c1687b30f8a0adf1d6b4ac9bdb8953c/tumblr_meui246kZB1runcffo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Recently, we received 10 million mobile downloads in less than a year.

Second, I’ve been helping to shepherd along this anthology, and wanted my contribution to be in the spirit of the its aims: to take one step back from my research to articulate an emerging issue of concern or theoretical insight that (I hope) will be of value to my colleagues in communication, sociology, science & technology studies, and information science.</p> <p>The anthology will ideally be out in Fall 2013. And we’re still finalizing the subtitle.
