The Last Word On Nothing

"Science says the first word on everything, and the last word on nothing" – Victor Hugo

The Last Word, Turkey Day edition

November 19 – 23

I hope you nice people in the States had a lovely Thanksgiving.

This week, Ginny introduced us to the sleep molecule.

Jessa explained the 21st century superbear. It’s a hybrid between a polar bear and a grizzly, and it’s straight out of the anthropocene.

Christie considered a status symbol shared by male turkeys and female fashion victims.

Tom interviewed Matter’s head honcho Jim Giles, about his brand-new science magazine, and asked him about that freaky inaugural story.

And Cameron gave thanks to science, scientists, science writers, the world, and our readers in what should surely become an LWON tradition from here on out.

See you Monday! Good luck with the turkey hangover.
