That is pretty cool.
In other underwater news (it’s Friday), a mysterious monster (why do we always stigmatize that which we don’t understand? Discuss.) has shown its bizarre-looking head in the Mersey (which is a river in England and the subject of a well-known tune by Gerry and the Pacemakers, “Ferry Cross the Mersey“), thus leading to the headline, Mystery Mersey Monster.
Which, I don’t know about you, is enough to get Friday off to a good start.

The comments from readers at the end of his article show why politicians should not involve themselves in academic matters at Harvard.
Most thought that politics in the academy had ended with the Summers era… Mr. Gabrielli apparently thinks otherwise.
