What a news day

Sherry Towers and her study on discrimination of women in physics is featured in Nature today and I'm sure it will make the headline in the blogosphere... as well as the comments on the feature. The only comment currently online will definitely open the debate...

Ah yes, sorry, I'm just emotionnaly biased, I'm a woman. Can't make an original contribution. What am I thinking?

And today on the guardian, some famous economist is questionning the law preventing employers to ask about family plans to candidates.

Ah sure, the situation for women is fine. No problem.
