The ice article reminds me of Ice 9 in Cats Cradle (Vonnegut).

The article about Daniel Kish, the blind man, using echolocation is incredible. I love his idea about the K-Sonar and I really REALLY wish our world was set up to value research and innovations more than profit and full pockets...

Can't wait to follow the research on gut bacteria as it develops.

And the boy who heard too much was a great read as well. So smart!

I read a lot more than that, but those were my favorites.
