However, I'm pretty sure most people in the science blogging world are better writers than I am. <br /><br />I really do like Alejandro's idea of having a third party host the duel. I'd also love to see (possibly participate in) a duel based on a classic science papers. <br /><br />wv: waringLostMarbleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07123440130769897997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479972171301319265.post-37933202000035193472009-07-29T13:54:57.015-04:002009-07-29T13:54:57.015-04:00This is an interesting idea.
