Fun Physics

Jennifer Ouellette, a science writer who has published the kind of science meets television books that appeal to me (The Physics of the Buffyverse (Penguin, 2007), for example)) has an interesting blog: science for the rest of us: Cocktail Party Physics. In a recent post, she discusses zombies, the theories of Wade Davis, and the case of John Darwin, the Englishman presumed dead, who turned up after five years claiming amnesia (won't wash, IMHO). He and his wife are now facing trial for fraud.
