Hi,


I have launched a directory of *currently running* newspaper columns
(published since 1 ) dedicated to various nature themes -- including
astronomy -- which allow at least temporary free access to the articles
online.

This directory is posted at: http://www.globalnaturalist.org
(note the Copernician solar system map)

The astronomy section is at:
http://www.globalnaturalist.org/ncu/topical.htm#Astronomy


So far I've found about a dozen astronomy columns which fit all of the
criteria above. Most of them are monthly, but I've found a few weekly
ones as well. The full list of columnists included in the directory is
posted at:

http://www.globalnaturalist.org/ncu/nists.htm


My question to the group is: Which current astronomy (or general
nature) columns -- allowing free-access to their content -- am I
missing?

[Of course, the free-access criterion is also met by those columnists
who "self-archive" their columns on their own websites.]

Any information on the missing columns would be most appreciated.


Thanks,

The Global Naturalist

Not a newspaper column, but I have around 30 or so essays, typically
about 4000 words in length, on various astronomy subjects. And they're
all freely available.
