NOTE: If you are in Boston — where WBUR does not carry the second hour of Science Friday — we suggest you listen over the net to WOSU-AM in Columbus, Ohio. Click here for their windows stream, and here for their real stream.

NOTE: The Nov. 23 Boston Globe has a report about the post-Ig party for the ceremony participants.
