(moderation:
The American Physical Society made a nice graphic for Einstein@Home, and now you can get it on a mousepad (http://www.cafepress.com/physicsbuzz.82455477), coffee cup (http://www.cafepress.com/physicsbuzz.82455478), or other stuff through CafePress (http://www.cafepress.com/physicsbuzz).
There's no markup (APS is nonprofit and we don't want the hassle of figuring out what to do with the money), just the base CafePress prices.
If you like them, or want to see the graphics on something else, drop me a line.

I'm glad you like 'em.
I'm going to put the graphics on other stuff too (clocks, calendars, coasters, etc.) My office is going to look like a shrine to Einstein@Home.

We're not making any profit. We are selling them at the base CafePress rate.
It's just for fun. I wanted a couple of things for myself, and I thought the community might too.
So . . . how do you make yourself a custom coffee cup or mousepad? Cafepress, my friend.
We don't have any cash to make a bunch of these things up front.
As far as I know, this is the only way to let people get one of these.
