| Backyard Science Phenology is a science that anyone can practice without a lab coat, microscope, or PhD. It's the study of seasonal events such as first flowers, appearance of certain butterflies, etc. People have tracked these dates for decades -- even centuries -- and now there's a place on DK to record your own observations. A casual spot to tell what you're seeing in the park down the road or in your own back yard. |

| Central Ohio Kossacks
Central Ohio Kossacks is a collection of folks living in and around Columbus, Ohio. The "in and around" parts include, but are by no means limited to, Westerville, Whitehall, Gahanna, Reynoldsburg, Grove City, Upper Arlington, Grandview, Dublin, and Worthington. Outliers are welcome, but Delaware County residents get probationary status until we understand why your county blew the 88 of 88 sweep against S.B. 5.

| History for Kossacks
Once the name of a regularly-appearing series on DK3, History for Kossacks is now a DK4 group blog dedicated to the discussion and diarying of all things historical. Topics range from the impact of a'a' lava on ancient Hawaii to Zoroastrianism in Persia; time frame is from Australopithecus to Zulu hours today - so come on in to this dusty cave full of moldering tomes, have a seat in an overstuffed chair, and let's talk history!
