I'm reading Great Scientists, a "children's book" by Victoria Sherrow. Bought this one years ago as a gift to my sisters, learning a lot these days reading its biographies of Pauling and Einstein, Oppenheimer and Fermi, Compton and Goddard, and a couple of biology researchers named Thomas Hunt Morgan and James Dewey Watson.
No chics on this list.
No chics on the list of Nigerian governors either.
On Thursday, I attended this year's speech and prize-giving ceremony at my alma-mater, Queen's College. Those students are the females who will someday make those lists.
What was special too, was that I live-blogged the event for my classmates. A summary will appear in the paper soon (Update: read online).

Nifty-fifty! More women should, of course, be added into the mix from around the world.
The link disappeared because the news site died years ago. Here is the article anyway, and here is the speech I gave at Queen's.
