Every so often, people who can count higher than 10 find themselves wondering:

If half the people on the planet are women, then why aren't half the scientists women?

Some "experts" find themselves baffled, others start mumbling incoherently about innate gender differences, and still others stick their heads in the sand.

Here's a better idea: let's just ask the people in the trenches today. Specifically, let's check with academics (who have to write for a living) who also happen to be women. How did last month go for researchers in highly-technical fields like:

• particle physics,
• computer science,
• (bio)engineering, and
• many, many, others?

For those of you checking your calendars, these folks are writing in July 2006! For those of you wondering why they're anonymous, well it's certainly less work than the alternative chosen by this neurobiologist.

And how's your blood pressure doing today?
