There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

That "new Smyrna councilman" is also known as Lewis Wheaton, associate professor in the School of Biological Sciences. Wheaton, who has run the Cognitive Motor Control Lab since he arrived at Georgia Tech in 2008, was elected Nov. 5th to Smyrna's Ward 7 with 57 percent of the vote. You can learn more about Wheaton's research in this ScienceMatters podcast.
