[et-cg] Feedback on IEEE Article

I would have two "cosmic comments"
a) The article uses model extensively and although that can include 
"statistical models", it is not a common way of describing data analysis 
which I believe is dominant part of eScience -- nearly all biology falls 
in this category as does analysis of LHC data. I would balance 
discussion of compute v data intensive aspects of eScience
b) eScience education has both "Informatics/Computer Science" side as 
well as inside specific domains. Although I have spent many years trying 
to integrate theses aspects, I don't think it has been very successful 
worldwide. I would add discussion of this
