A friend and I found ourselves fascinated by the podcast titled
Making the Hippo Dance, from WNYC's Radio Lab. Focusing as it does
on the challenges of communicating complex scientific concepts to non-
scientists, I thought it would be of interest to some of those here
on the list-serv. The hosts use plenty of examples to try and
illuminate their thought process(es) as they strive to work as
interpreters for a mass audience. Radio Lab is becoming one of my
favorites.
