entropy bound

Of course, just when I was feeling guilty about not even thinking about trying to keep this thing even vaguely current, here I go getting invited to become a contributor to "Quantum Diaries" for the next year. In honor of the Word Year of Physics 2005 (Einstein's Really Good Year, in other words...) there will be a group of 25 of us (particle and nuclear types) who will be encouraged by their various labs to keep a weekly blog. I'm very honored to have been chosen and hope to carry the original point of this blog (a slow, digressional explanation of "what I do") to a much wider audience (or at least college kids who are interested in becoming physicists).
