If you've come here looking for one of those sweet, sexy magnets everyone has been talking about, you've come to the right place. You can get one from our store simply by clicking right here.
Show your support for science, the scientific method, and the hard working scientists and science educators in your home town, by slapping one of these babies on the back of your car and helping us get the message out. Better yet, get a couple, and put one up on the 'fridge in the break room, dorm, or teacher's lounge as well.
And when somebody asks you where you got it, tell 'em it came from those cool guys at SupportOurScientists.com.

I’m not quite sure when I became interested in science. The roots likely lay deep in my childhood, which I seemingly spent shuffling around picking up rocks and trying to identify them with the help of my father, a geologist. I do, however, remember the exact moment when I became concerned about science […]

Support Our Scientists magnets have made their way to at least 14 19 states. In terms of numbers, Arizona is in the lead. That’s where SOS is based. Tying for second place are California, Nevada, and Texas. You go Lone Star State! Get your science on! We also sold a hefty batch to the National […]

According to some folks, supporting science is antithetical to patriotism. My good friend Roy, whom I’ve known for 26 years, is a U.S. Navy veteran. He did a 13 year stint on nuclear subs, then retired due to knee problems. He served our country well, and now with his rickety knees is easy to beat […]

The custom die-cutting between the nucleotides was especially tricky, but ended up looking very cool. And as we all […]

That’s right, we diversified. Well sorta. I set up a plethora of products on Cafepress for your science-awareness-and-appreciation-enjoyment. I’m buying the baby SOS jumper for Sydney. Maybe she’ll be a scientist instead of a Jazz-drumming, web-developing fool like her dad!

Because that’s pretty much the kiss of death. I shoulda known better. Too much work, baby on the way, lots of unfinished home improvement projects. What was I thinking? I was nowhere near “back on track.”
Good news, though. We have a healthy baby girl! She was a couple weeks early, born November 15th, but […]

It’s been a few months since any real work has been done on the Support Our Scientists site. *Sigh*. Walt took a full-time job and I’ve been pretty buried in work myself—not to mention trying to prepare for my first baby (due late November 06). So, the SOS project has taken a back seat of […]

How cool! SupportOurScientists.com was item #3 on Seed Magazine’s Daily Zeitgeist. “Thank you,” Seed Magazine! And “thank you” mom for telling Seed about SOS!

They were just peas. They grew from the earth, drank the rain, and soaked up the sun. This was what peas did. What they had always done. They didn’t know where they lived, just as they had no idea what year it was. When the spectacled man came along to pluck them from the ground […]
