We are still in shakedown mode here at Discover Blogs, although hopefully things are mostly working well. One change is that from now on people will have to register to leave comments. Maybe that's for the best? Let's see how it goes, at any rate. Last night I had the privilege of once again appearing on the Colbert Report to talk with our nation's leading pundit about the frontiers of modern science. I can't seem to embed the video (shakedown, remember?), but here's the clip. I'm not sure you'd want to use it to help explain how the Higgs mechanism works, but I think we had fun. The joke about "massive" at the end makes sense only if you know that Colbert has a running gag, referenced earlier in the show, in which he has been trying to get people to say "massive" as a synonym for "cool." http://www.hulu.com/watch/430509
