Watcher’s Council nominations for July 7, 2010
Sometimes it really pains me that I can vote for only two Watcher’s Council nominations in each category (Council and non-Council). This week’s nominations are a perfect example of that frustration. On both the Council and the non-Council side, the quality of the work submitted is extraordinary. When voting, I refused to play eeny-meeny-miney-mo to choose my ultimate vote getters, but it was really difficult to decide which submissions should be wheated and which chaffed. (I like the preceding sentence, as it has six words spell check finds objectionable.) Here, see for yourself:
