This Week's Letters

The eligibility requirements for Computer Science, Engineering, and Mathematics Scholarships, administered by the National Science Foundation, are clarified. Efforts to assist Congolese conservationists in maintaining the protective function of national parks in the midst of a warring region are described. Members of BIOPAT discuss the philosophy and goals of the organization, which lists new species that can be named in exchange for a donation: "We believe...that the kind of private sponsorship encouraged by BIOPAT will promote serious taxonomic work and will foster the description and conservation of biodiversity." And on presolar grains: "Stones from a time before there was an Earth, they speak not only of other systems in our universe but of times before our world existed."
