Since there's some discussion of the technical aspects of using/quoting parts of BME in research projects, I've built in tools to make that easier in the encyclopedia. Now when you click the “revision history” link on any of the entries, it'll tell you exactly what you need to write. For example, here's a simple one, but it also handles complex entries with multiple authors and revision dates like this one that Chris and I co-wrote.
Also, I don't know how many of you read typealice's mygambia blog (which I think I've recommended here before), but I got this postcard from her and I wanted to share some of what was written (I hope that's OK) because I think it's an important thing for folks to read:
People work hard here. Selling fish, oranges, peanuts, fixing cars, reusing metal and plastics. Nothing is going to waste, nothing is thrown away. Everyone has a skill.The pace is slow. Greetings are such a huge part of the culture, it makes me realize how cold we are to one another in the Western world. Although this is one of the world's poorest countries, the people are always happy.
Makes me think that we've got it all wrong at home.
