Allison Eck interviews Jon Mooallem about his story on Gavin Pretor-Pinney and the Cloud Appreciation Society, including how Mooallem weaved amateur cloud-watching's history into it: "History is always my favorite part to write, and typically to read, too. It tends to feel so crisp, with a clear momentum that the sloppy narrative you’re cobbling together from your shaggy real-time interviews and contemporary reality never does. What a relief when everyone’s long dead!"
