Scientific paper

I review the properties of the diffuse ionized gas (DIG) in nearby star-forming galaxies emphasizing the evidence for a secondary excitation mechanism in addition to stellar photoionization. I address the frequently asked question of whether the diffuse ionized gas (DIG) in external galaxies is a good analogy to the warm ionized medium (WIM) described by Reynolds and Haffner at this meeting.
