New Blog: polisci

It’s a wonderful new year for new blogs. I’ve already sun the praises for Dreaming 5th Generation War, Small Wars Journal Blog, Soob de Jour, and Quiet Thoughts. Now I am thrilled to introduce polisci.
polsci is written by a colleageu of mine at the Unviersity of Nebraska, who shares my interest on how genes influence human behavior. Thus our subject matter is often similar, with the different this his writing is far more scholarly, precise, and knowledgeable than mine.

Thanks for the welcome, Dan. I've been blogging since March 2000, mainly on travel and food in the early days and on rock climbing more recently. You and others can see the record of my adventures at http://www.johnfulwider.com/wordpress/index.php
