The New SAS Store and Forum
Reopen
The long-awaited
reopening of the SAS
store is underway. The new store features a much more sophisticated
and user-friendly interface, and allows us to offer a wider array
of products to SAS members.
Our Grand-Reopening
is going to take place in stages, but definitely take a look at the
new store right away. Better yet, visit the store and support SAS
by spending a lot of money on cool stuff!
The Forum
on the SAS website has been completely revamped. This is the result
of a drastic reorganization to make browsing easier. Visit the SAS
website and check it out! Please write
to us and let us know what you think! SG
Appologies to
Jeff Kodosky
A few weeks ago
I said that National Instruments had agreed to put up $130,000 to
help fund the first season of The Amateur Scientist's Workshop
TV Series. Well... Actually, although Jeff founded National Instruments,
the money will come from his private philanthropic organization, The
Kodosky Foundation.
Sorry about the error!

Appologies to
Anyone Trying to Email Me
I've been incommunicado
for the last few weeks because I've been kiling myself on my book
proposal. (You may remember my call for suggestions for Citizen
Scientists-- True stories of ordinary people who've made remarkable
contributions to science and technology.) Well, it's finally going
out to my literary agent next week. Hopefully, I'll be able to come
up for air and catch up on my correspondence.
I'll let you know if a
publisher picks it up. SC
