Congratulations, sir, you win at Photoshop.

This is surely the best thing to happen to the “Land of the Tobacco Pipe,” in roughly 165 years, when the first organized game of baseball was played at Elysian Fields. And, by virtue of this post, you now know everything you will ever need to know about Hoboken, NJ. You’re welcome.

Dan Nocera: Earth’s Self-Proclaimed Savior

MIT Chemistry Professor, Dan Nocera claims to have solved that pesky little energy production problem we humans have been struggling with.
