#introduction #introductions

Hello Fediverse,
I am a researcher in #geoscience, focusing mostly on hydrogeology, hydrology, evaporation and rock weathering. I am affiliated with Charles University (Czech Republic).
I am here to stay in touch with – and share – news about #science and academic life. That's why I chose #Fediscience as my home server and will mostly contribute to the tags #academia and #academicchatter.
I am in my mid-thirties and live near Prague with my family. I enjoy reading #books and spending time in nature. Addicted to #coffee.

Can you please boost this question so I can reach a wider audience?

Does anyone out there have a paperback copy of "The Second O of Sorrow" by Sean Thomas Dougherty?

I need to know the number of the page that the poem "Why Bother?" is on.

Thanks in advance!

Found via Reddit. Apparently there's an upcoming book in Polish collecting letters exchanged between Ursula K. LeGuin and Stanisław Lem. Not sure if there'll be an English edition at some point, but I certainly hope so!
