Let me show you my favorite...

Carl Zimmer has been collecting science-related tattoos for a few years. I sent him a picture of my coelacanth tattoo for his Web page, and then for his upcoming book. I don't much like the subtitle—I don't think I'm science-obsessed, and certainly not obsessed with coelacanths—but I do think it's a cool project. (And I should probably see if I can make a usable icon out of this photo.)



ETA: I just got a follow-up email, asking for artist information so Carl can put credits in the book. This tattoo was done by Craig Cooley, who is now in Lake Charles, LA.
