That's right, it's been six months since the news forum saw any activity. And right now, I'm not really sure how exactly to resuscitate it. Shamelessly copy-pasting articles from other websites, which is how it all started many many years ago, was clearly a bad idea and wasted everyone's time. Writing articles that included some poor attempts at humor and sarcasm thereafter à la The Onion was a bit more original, but took more time and effort (bah!) So now, I'm thinking: What can we do that is a bit more novel? It doesn't have to be Special-relativity-novel, just something that's a bit fresh and different and exciting.

Hmm...what can we do that's novel? Something that's...a bit different...hmm...

I can't think of anything right now, but I'm sure it'll come to me soon enough. In the meantime, here's a picture of what a geek with a baby looks like.

Actually, how about a little experiment. I was reading this article this morning about a teacher who decided to sell ad spaces on her exams! What would be the best way for us to write about/spin/mock/analyze/laugh out loud at such a piece?
