From my admittedly biased perspective, the Congress was quite an event! I really enjoyed following the bloggers remarks, too---Thanks Sarah, Brandon and Colter for thoughtful assessments of what was happening while it was happening!

Now the questions is where to go from here? How to become involved as a scientific citizen? I volunteered to be a science resource person at a local school, but we'll see if anything comes of it...do you have to run for office to be a "real" citizen scientist?...sometimes it feels like it
