I don't follow the science that closely myself, which is a little weird since I'm really very much a sci-tech groupie. But this is really more about the hardware and competition for me, at least lately anyway.

That said, I'm pretty sure we have a list of all of the publications in peer-reviewed journals where we have contributed to the raw data. I just don't think it's all gathered together like trophies on a shelf. I think that as these things come out, they get mentioned in the applicable thread and that's pretty much it. My impression is that we don't t really make a big deal out of it.

And to that you may respond, 'well, that's sort of my point.' Except you see, that's how scientific research is done. You hear about the grand discoveries but you NEVER hear about the hundreds of lab techs and millions of man/woman hours of painstaking labor that were necessary for that breakthrough.

Newton said it best but I'll just paraphrase. 'If I have achieved anything it is because I have stood on the shoulders of giants.' OK, maybe we aren't the giants in that analogy, but hey, the giants have to stand on something too, right?

Usually the 'giant' part comes out as meaning something akin to a nozzle used to apply fluids to ones genitals. Whew. That was close.

Since that wasn't in fact the case this time though, it would appear that I've been slacking off and have not been diligent in spamming these forums. For that I do apologize.
