The Science Channel Stewards and their Science Zones
Maggie Skeel - Biology
Maggie's favorite channel within Biology is Zoology. She not only teaches Zoology in Australia, but also knows all about animals and is into animal rescue. She has created a zone about animals and for anyone who wants to learn more about animals. Check out Maggie's zone for a detailed taxonomy of every livng animal: http://www.helium.com/zone/1614. Maggie's newest zone is all about the Great Barrier Reef - http://www.helium.com/zone/2927.
Ernest is a Chemistry teacher and chemist who is serious about the discipline of chemistry. He is the Helium Chemistry guru in case you want to know more about chemistry. To check out Ernest's zone go to http://www.helium.com/zone/2798
Alicia is a wiz at medical science and has developed five zones on aspects of medical science which are
http://www.helium.com/zone/1508 - Alicia Prater's Writing Zone - she concentrates on science articles
http://www.helium.com/zone/1705 - Bird Flu
http://www.helium.com/zone/2350 - DNA: The Basics of Genetics
http://www.helium.com/zone/1631 - HIV and AIDS
http://www.helium.com/zone/979 - Medical Research
Ethel just became a steward recently. She is concerned about the weather so naturally she is steward of the Atmosphere and Weather Channel. Ethel is a wiz at building zones. Check out her Atmosphere and Weather zone with interesting information about the weather around the world: http://www.helium.com/zone/2892
Amanda loves plants especially red maple trees. She is Helium's Botany steward and you can find her delightful zone at http://www.helium.com/zone/2542. Amanda's newest zone is all about Botany also: http://www.helium.com/zone/2992.
Yes that is me, Colette Georgii. I am steward of the Science Channel. My favorite science channels are the Social Science channels and the Earth Channel so I have a zone all about the environment called Environment Central which you can see at http://www.helium.com/zone/1525. In case you are an environment nut like myself or want to know everything about what is going on in the world environmentally, check out my zone.
Of course, I am also building this zone, the Science Channel Zone for all dedicated scientists that visit Helium. You can get to this zone at http://www.helium.com/zone/2744. Well since you are here reading this, you probably already know that.
Ian Loft was once the Science Channel steward. He got too busy with work and other things, so I took over as the Science Channel steward. Previously I was the Ecology and Environment steward. Ian is still very busy, so he hasn't done his zone yet. I thought I was the turtle!! So we will just wait for Ian to build the magnificent zone I know he can do. Oh, he is the Earth Channel Steward.
James Johnson was briefly the steward for Ecology and Environment but resigned because he is real busy with a Pirate festival in Nevis where he also lives and works in the rainforest. We hope he will come back but life goes on. He however is still busy writing excellent articles for Helium and has built an excellent zone about nature and hiking which you can check out at http://www.helium.com/zone/2125
