HEY POPSCI GUYS!!!! This is probably not the place to ask but I couldn't find anywhere else to... I have a subscription to your magazine and I've had a subscription off and on for well over a decade. I have recently (relatively) come to love your website even more! I still enjoy my subscription though :) The reason I mention this is that I want you to take me seriously. I would love for you guys to put in a little extra connectivity for your website and allow your subscribers to interact and debate the topics you bring to the table in a more "in depth" fashion. Please provide a reply capability on comments and an email notification. Please set up forums so that we can discuss amongst each other all the possibilities (good or bad) that science has for us. There are so many ways that we can can make this website even better. I know the site is free but perhaps if it gets an upgrade then more people will want to visit regularly and you could sell more advertising space. (I don't mind) Please please please please! All the topics you bring to the table are my favorite to discuss and I would really love to be able to discuss them better! Thanks if you read this and double thanks if you listened ^.^ And please don't think that I don't like your website the way it is. There is always room for improvement :)
Free shirt are the coolest.
haha well played
--GTO--
A randomly picked winner? That could be me!
Nice design. I would like this shirt.
"Is your cat making too much noise all the time? Is your cat constantly stomping around driving you crazy? Is your cat clawing at your furniture? Think there’s no answer? You’re so stupid! There is! Kitten Mittens. Finally, there is an elegant, comfortable mitten for cats. Is your cat one-legged? Is your cat fat, skinny, or an in-between? That doesn’t matter! Cause one size fits all! Kitten Mittens! You’ll be smitten!" -Charlie Kelly
