We just switched out summer to winter clothes and have a lot that mac has outgrown. I thought it might be time to do a Buffista clothing swap again, if you are interested email me with the following info:
What size clothes you have? If they are for boy or girl What size clothes you need? If you are willing to send even if you will not receive.
I will email people with info on who to send clothes to and will keep a chart, so if you never get stuff I can try to track it down.
Just to let you know, every dollar you donate today to No on Prop 8 (California initiative that would make it illegal for gays to marry) is being matched. Details and donation link are here: [link]
I'm so pleased to announce I'll be a regular guest blogger at Cocktail Party Physics: [link]
I'll be joining prestigious science writers Jennifer Ouellette, M.G. Lord, Diandra Leslie-Pelecky and more for physics with a twist.
So excited!
I'll be reading with Kim "In The Aeroplane Over the Sea" Cooper and Scott "If You're Feeling Sinister" Plagenhoef at the Hammer Museum in LA tomorrow evening at 7 pm. It's free! The reading will include a video or two of Richard & Linda Thompson making music plus some audio comparisons of RT's music and a snippet of an interview. If you're in LA, please come! If you're not in LA, I think there's some cheap last-minute tickets available.

My profile addy is good, though it looks like the nearest Buffista lives more than 90 miles away.
I have 3 Nightmare Before Christmas promo iPod skins that I got at the Halloween showing of NBC in 3-D. It is pictured in this auction [link] (note: this is not my auction and I don't think these work for an iPod touch). First 3 who email me can have them - I'll ship for free. Happy Halloween!

Through this all, she managed to vote, so if you haven't already, and are USian, go vote!
