Working on working

[petmoosie]

I went to the local ACS affiliate meeting last night. I heard a very interesting talk on science priorities and government funding. The speaker had spent a year volunteered to the Office of Science and Technology Policy in the executive branch. She said that chemists aren't getting out the good news for good discoveries and aren't making their agenda known in the halls of government.

My local affiliate is hosting the Fall National Meeting and they are getting ready to call for volunteers. I think stepping up would be good for me.
