on a more personal note, i want to thank the tweeters peeps who came to yesterday's scienceblogs party! it was a smashing success! i absolutely enjoyed being with you and talking with you all, it was a treat for me! and the weather was gorgeous, so we were outdoors on the deck of ozzie's -- what could be better than good food, good drink and good company on a beautiful autumn afternoon in seattle?

cheers,
