Yay, I've been Cited!

In November 1999, I had my first professional article published in The Physics Teacher, about an "artificial Right Hand Rule" I built for a quadriplegic student. (Click here for a supplement to that article that explains what the actual article was about.)

Now, in the March 2005 issue of TPT, my original piece has been cited by someone publishing an article about a similar topic (a simpler cardstock Right Hand Rule aid for students with full use of their hands).

So, now there should be at least one entry for me in the Reverse Citation Index for 2005, yay! (I spent many hours poring over that index in grad school, during both my literature search and just general "find stuff for people" jobs.) And I wonder if the David J. Van Domelen who is a geologist out in the northwest will also be cited this year. Heh.
