New publicity for the diatom collection.

A writer from the UK recently contacted me after seeing the collection on Flickr, and asked if she could write a story about the collection and us.  After some conversation, I said yes.  I was contacted by her publisher two days ago who told me that the images and story had just appeared in two publications: The Daily Mail, and Telegraph.  The links are below.  I am awaiting confirmation regarding another publication at this time. Really exciting to see the word spreading.

Publicity

A recent on-line research exploration of mine uncovered, surprisingly, a nice article written by Steven Farrell, an honors student, at Drexel University. Steven  visited the exhibition at The Academy of Natural Sciences in late October, just before the exhibit closed, and wrote of his observations about the exhibition.

The entire article can be read at this link:  http://drexelculturalpassport.com/article/science-and-nature/sn101510.

Good to have a younger persons impressions of our efforts.
