+%   The Scientific Paper Package for LaTeX
+%   By Ryan Aycock 
+%   For use with LaTeX and pdfLaTeX
+%   March 26, 2004
+%
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+
+LaTeX has long been known as a convenient tool for writing scientific papers.  
+Much to my surprise, however, there are no packages on CTAN that actually format 
+scientific papers easily.  The effort seeks to correct that problem by giving 
+users a simple-to-use method for distributing their work.  Notice, this package 
+is not based on any particular style guide.  It will only create a generic, two 
+column paper with a single column abstract at the top.
+
+THIS PACKAGE REQUIRES THE MULTICOL PACKAGE (included).
+
+To write your own scientific papers, use the template below:
+
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+
+\documentclass[letterpaper,11pt]{article}
+\usepackage{science}
+
+\title{Ultra Cool Title}
+\author{Your Name}
+\date{the date}  % Can use \today
+
+\begin{document}
+\maketitle
+
+\begin{abstract}
+Type your abstract here.
+\end{abstract}
+
+\begin{body}
+
+Type your paper as normal.  Use \cite{} for your citations.
+
+\begin{bib}
+
+Put your bibliography here.  Use \bibitem{} for
+each of the citations used in your paper.
+
+\end{bib}
+
+\end{body}
+\end{document}
+
+
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+
+Some final notes:
+
+To list more than one author or to list schools and contact information, use
+
+\author{First author's name$^{1}$\thanks{Contact information}, % Notice the comma and space
+Second author$^{2}$\\
+$^{1}$\textit{First university}\\
+$^{2}$\textit{Second university}}
+
+
+
+
+Floating environments such as figures or tables are forbidden in the multicol environment.  
+To get around this limitation, you have two options when including a figure or table:
+
+use \begin{figurehere}... \end{figurehere} and \begin{tablehere}... \end{tablehere} 
+to place a float in the two column format (right here).
+Or you can use \begin{figure*} \begin{table*}.  These commands will span your float 
+body across the page, usually at the top --- best for large images and tables.
+
+
+
+Finally, the bibliography uses the default LaTeX thebibliography feature.  If you want to 
+use BibTeX or have more than 99 sources, you will need to edit the package.
+
+
+
+To learn LaTeX, start with "The Not So Short Introduction to LaTeX" by Tobias Oetiker.  It 
+is available online at CTAN:/tex-archive/info/lshort .  Or you can search Google for any results.
+
+If you have any more questions --- about the package, not about LaTeX --- write to me at
