Very impressive, Chris. I may have to raise my opinion of you. Let me think that over and discuss it with some mutual friends first, of course.

Thank you, Martin. Your part in the “success” of this site is considerable as well.

And yes, mothers are always right — at least when they are complimenting their children.

As for being a “feather in my cap”, I prefer sticking this particular feather in my CV. I am currently job hunting, after all.

Kudos to you, Chris! Being noted in such a prestigious publication as Science Magazine is a “feather in your cap.” As a past member of the AAAS, I used to receive Science Magazine on a regular basis. But, alas, no more.

I am very impressed by your accomplishments, Chris. And, obviously, so is your mom. (Listen to her…mothers are *always* right! .)

You never stop amazing me with your smartness. I cannot believe that you belong to me. Must have got all those smarts from your dad. We are so proud of you. Mom

It’s not completely the AAAS editor’s fault. My “About” page was worded poorly. I’ve since made it more clear. When the “About” page was initially written, I was teaching at an area high school and working part-time on a Ph.D. at VCU. I am now full-time at VCU as an RA.

I was a little surprised that no one at AAAS contacted me before or after publication. I may have never known had a colleague not noticed.

A net +2 for Science, and a net +1,000,000 for me!

It’s nice to see the web links editor getting all those details right.
Did they not ask? Do they just make it up?
-3 to the AAAS and their slapdash information gathering.
+5 for showing me the site.
How is the Shatner film thing going?
