Phil Schewe’s Physics Story of the Year 2006

My colleague Phil Schewe at AIP has now revealed his pick for physics story of the year, as well as his long list of runner-ups. Several of the Physics News Update items in the list (the ones on dark energy, the new WMAP data, wireless energy transfer, and stock market criticality) were stories I wrote up.

Coming up soon at sciencewriter.org: my own picks of the top 10 science (not just physics) stories of 2006. They will be up at the end of next week.

My Top 10 Science Stories of 2006

Interview with Alan Guth, the Man Who Put the 'Big' in 'Big Bang'

Flashback:

The Jurassic Park of Manuscripts, with my 2005 radio piece on the rediscovery of Archimedes' works in a medieval manuscript.

"It has often been said there's so much to be read, you never can cram all those words in your head.

So the writer who breeds more words than he needs is making a chore for the reader who reads.

That's why my belief is the briefer the brief is, the greater the sigh of the reader's relief is."

-- Dr. Seuss
