I have often been asked what is the editorial stance this site. With two year's worth of writing behind me, I can safely answer that this site stands for three things: 1) good science; 2) solid technique; and 3) reasoned opinion.
That said, here is our 2013 index.

Among my many $1 estate sale finds in 2012 was this kitschy Christmas album. There was no reason on earth for my parents to have owned this title, but own it they did, and the songs bring back pleasant memories of childhood Christmases.
