Reading Diary - Arsenic bugs, Food, Cities and Sixth Wave

As Christmas duties have suddenly reached their peak I have found my reading and other activities taking a back step. But the discovery of Arsenic life forms by NASA has reawakened the reading habit.
Recent titles & web info include:

• NASA announces Arsenic based bacterium (note to Tony: "Stop the arsenic bugs!")
• The coming famine : the global food crisis and what we can do to avoid it by Julian Cribb.(Interesting and informative)
• Lifeboat cities by Brendan Gleeson (didn't like this one)
• American Grist Website - Climate change info. (Don't try the article on Chesapeake Bay chicken factories!)
• New Inventors James H Moody "The sixth wave" - intro interesting, so need to read more!
• "Love and the Platypus" by Nicholas Drayson for my book club!

So that's more than enough to keep me busy for quite a while, especially since its started raining yet again!
