We are the seeders of collaboration clouds
This is a ScienceOnline-inspired ditty, written with the other sciosatellite leaders and Bora, Karyn and Anton in mind: We nudge the primordial specks of the universe, Atoms upon atoms Closer, closer Till gravity seizes them, draws them into intimate quarters,
