| Chemical and Engineering News (C&EN), known as the preferred source of information about the chemistry enterprise, took its mission seriously enough to include chemical whimsy in its reportage. Newscripts has brought us the other side of the news on the back page of C&EN since 1943. Ken Reese, 50 years in the Publications Division and over 50 years as an ACS member at the time of his retirement in 2004, was not the first steward of this regular column, nor is he the last, but his work sets the standard. This paper highlights some of the author's favorite Reese postings as a tribute to a legend. |
