Science stars for a day

Senior pranksters had stars in their eyes as they plastered a stretch of the Hollywood Walk of Fame with the names of some 500 famous scientists during the wee hours of May 4, creating the "Scientists' Walk of Fame." The roster included David Baltimore, Kip Thorne, and Richard Feynman, as well as Isaac Newton, Albert Einstien, Stephen Hawking, and Marie Curie. The prank coincided with the release of the American-scientist stamp series (see article this issue).
