Me too. Lowe is having an interesting year, first a Hugo and now his book sees print.

BTW I recommend visiting the What If website too.

Saw Colbert, it was not a great interview. Wish it had been better and longer.

You mean Randall Munroe (unless that's an alias for Derek Lowe)?

Sorry, I got people confused there (not me confused, .....)!!

Most of the present Stephen Colbert persona interviews are train wrecks. Only if it's with a artist, author, musician or movie star that he really likes does the interview stand a chance.
Hope his new persona when he goes main stream is different.

Just a reminder for those who might have missed this!!!

Once more for old times' sake!!!

I'm assuming that the book will be new content, yes? Not just a print publishing of the What If? posts?

They are awesome, by the way.

Are you being paid to promote this book or something? I don't get the point of repeatedly bringing it back to the top of the science forum with TTT posts.

I love xkcd and the What If blog, but the book was released almost a month ago.

A lightweight version of "Does anything eat wasps?" What of it?
