Re: Geo content, AmSci mag

The Jan/Feb issue of American Scientist "journal of the Sigma Xi society" - the mag which emulates the late lamented style of
the previous editorship of Scientific American - has some
nice geology content. An article on estimating the frequency
and strength of past earthquakes by locating standing stones,
nice science, and a great pic of the Louis Agassiz statue
in San Fransisco after the big quake, if you've never seen it
before - it should be a wall poster for geologists everywhere.

If you pick it up, you might also enjoy the geo. content in the
article on the natural history of the apple, and another article
about the varieties of crystal growth in snowflakes.


Thanks. I wonder why the geo community cannot seem to sustain a good, readable geoscience related magazine outside of the journals. Haven't seen a good one since Earth. Even GeoTimes has gone downhill recently, IMO.
