Thanks so much for the response, and a swift one at that. I'm a business journalist, but I'm fascinated with science. The science.ca site is very informative. A great service.

Jessica Sager, 9th Grade High School Student on November 15, 2003

I had to do a report on the many uses of oxygen. I had to get the uses, who invented it, what it's used for and any other facts about it. Your page at science.ca was a very useful tool and it helped me a lot. Thank you.

Walter Zukauskas, Physics Lecturer, Dalhousie U. on November 12, 2003

Loved your portrait of Willard Boyle. It's informative and it has zip and zing!

Thank you for helping me so much on trying to find great Canadian scientists for my project!

Morgan Brown, Canadian Nuclear Society on October 16, 2003

Great site. I have made an additional link to your page on Bertram Brockhouse, from the Canadian Nuclear Society's "Nuclear Pioneers" web page.

Mark Irvine, Sacramento, CA inventor on September 25, 2003

Thank you very much for the help. You people are great.

Jennifer Yule, Canadian high school student on September 25, 2003

I think that the answer for the question "What's better: pushing or pulling a car, front or rear wheel drive?" was a perfect explanation. I was about to ask the same question becasue I have a project for school to do, but when I saw that this question was already asked and answered I was surprised to find the efficiency. Thanks again for the great explanation!

Jacob Berkowitz, Quantum Writing on September 10, 2003

Just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate using the GCS website. I'm writing a piece on Bertram Brockhouse and your profile on him and his work is wonderful. It's the personal details in your story that I found so compelling, and different than all of the other material I found online about him.

Great site! Learned alot!

Just surfing the internet when landing on the beach of science! My English isn't the best but I tried the quiz and I've learned a few things! I'm working with old people and maybe there is something about making aging process become easier!? I'll be back!

This is a really good site. I spend hours learning about things I never thought I would know anything about. Thanks.

I do like your page on Endel Tulving. I have met him because I have read a note on him at La Research number this year on memory.

George Georgiev is an artist on Gabriola Island who designs the world's fastest bicycles. While not a scientist, here are his bicycles.

I think your site is the best science site I have ever went. I could find lots of information from here for my projects. But, I wish there were more things about motions.

damein on February 7, 2003

Well, the site's ok but needs more info... I'm kiddin this site has to !@#$ing much info!!!!!!!!

Judy on December 10, 2002

I think your site is great! I can't find a French side to it and therefore assume it doesn't exist. It would be wonderful if you could make it bilingual. I am a monolingual anglophone but believe this is information that should be shared by all Canadians. - or is there another site? [It is one of our goals to get the site translated. If anyone out there can help, please drop us a line. --Editors]

I would like to suggest that you update profiles more often. But in general the site is a good reference site.

Macarena Busto on October 23, 2002

Marla Sokolowski at UTM (Mississauga) is a world leader in behavioural genetics. Her work on fruit flies has revealed many interesting details of the genetic basis of natural behavioural variation. I would like to see her profiled on this site.

Sylvie Cabrit, Astronomer at Observatoire de Paris on October 15, 2002

Your profile of Hubert Reeves is very interesting and illustrates very well how scientific discoveries are sometimes triggered by inspiration from very ordinary observations, a very nice illustration of the way scientific discovery works. It also shows that good scientists are neither mad nor boring, but sensitive and creative. It is great that you are making such a web site!

Jim Booth, Physics Dept., British Columbia Institute of Technology on May 7, 2002

Your website is terrific! I am spending way too much time browsing. :)
