Well, we’re statistical at last! 37 years later is certainly better than never…but I note that, unlike the NSF’s sponsorship of the Science & Engineering Indicators, it’s not a governmental organization sponsoring this. (And some of the categories look a little forced: volunteer literacy tutors? That’s like the NSF including citizen scientists tracking monarch butterfly migration in their count, I think. Not that both activities aren’t far more useful than a lot of heavily-funded academic projects, mind you!)
