Hey there readers,

Unfortunately, the next few days on CauseScience will be a bit quieter because one contributor is volunteering at Camp Ta-Kum-Ta up in Vermont (just like last year), and the other contributor has major fellowship application deadlines in addition to back-to-back bridesmaid duties (including one in Oregon, check out the picture of Mt. Hood en route).  Have no fear, we will return to make sure you get all the interesting science, science advocacy updates, and scientific explanation you are used to!!
