To start I thought you might like to see the most recent MIT Hack entitled "Caltech Cannon Hack". I read in the paper today that a while ago Caltech stole this cannon from a prep school near Caltech, and that in response to some prank Caltech played at this time last year, MIT students decided to bring this huge thing out east. They must have really thought this through. It must have cost a bit of money too. Anyway, have a look for yourself here.
I also wanted to know what any of you who read this do once you have read an article you are going to put in your biblography. Since there are only 2 of you that read this blog that use bibliographies, I guess I may never get a response but I was curious. I use bibdesk for the mac, but once I have read the article and made my notes I don't know what to use to jot the notes I made into, scan a pdf? The notes section of bibdesk seems the easiest place to retrieve my notes but I use equations and figures a lot and it won't take those fields. It also has a poor search tool. So I was thinking DevonThink but they have poor support for equations as well...ideas are welcome.

Hey, just wondering what you didn't like about searching in BibDesk.
If you have suggestions, I bet the current developers would be pretty receptive - there's also a chance you might be missing out on some hidden features.
Definitely go for DevonThink!
Actually you can add a very nice support for equations. Install free Equation Service and enable pdf attachments to RTF. Now you can go between Latex code and tiny, beautiful PDF equations in your RTF files using a key combination.
I hope it helps.
