Release of unpublished data for public perusal

One of the many, many reasons I love Rob Dunn is that he's such a social scientist - outreach and Rob appear to go hand in hand, and he seems like a really fun, genial type of guy.

He (and his collaborators) are releasing the data they have on the microbes of the human belly-button... for analysis by YOU! (and you and you and you!). He explains it better, of course, but read it, do it (or not), but love Dunn regardless.

I, personally, am hyped that Thanksgiving break is right around the corner, because part of my sleepy Friday will be spent playing a bit with the dataset.
