I have somehow "friended" in Facebook something called BOINC Info. I do not remember how I got to it or it got to me. There was a post informing us of a BBC Radio piece on "Citizen Science", all about BOINC. It was excellent. I find no notice of the BBC piece in the BOINC Message Boards. So, what is the origin of BOINC Info? http://sciencesprings.wordpress.com http://facebook.com/sciencesprings
