Sometimes there just aren't enough hours in the day, and today has been one where I could have done with more. The daily post - usually done first thing - had to be postponed and only now, at 6 pm, am I sitting down to write, but the lateness of the hour tends to lead to scattered thoughts as the morning's focus has gone, and I must rush off again in a minute.
So as this is pretty much a non-post, I hope that tomorrow's will be better (and earlier) and I thought we might have a little 'request spot': you say what you'd like to see on Cornflower tomorrow, or as soon as is practicable, and I'll do my best to comply. Suggestions, questions, maybe themes for linked posts - what do you think?
Postprandial postscript: Peter's suggested Literary Science - blimey!
Some literary science?

I left a comment and it has vanished! Here it is again:

Permit me to take the liberty of mentioning (as it might interest Physcist's Cat!) that yesterday this statue was unveiled in Edinburgh (George Street at St Andrew's Square).

It was a fine historic occasion with an accompanying conference programme just down the street at the Royal Society of Edinburgh.

More pictures of mouthwatering cakes, perhaps?

Don't let the blog become a chore for you. You do marvellously well - you're allowed a day off! If you are angsting about not having posted, put on a photos of the dogs. Who doesn't love a black lab?

Happy to see your photos of Edinburgh any time...

My thanks to Barbara fro the link to Maxwell. Of course his visibility amongst physicists and electrical/electronic engineers could hardly be higher, but it is good that perhaps the folk of Edinburgh in general may now be able to appreciate one of the greatest sceintists the world has seen.
