As a high school teacher, I loved your series on your biology curriculum. I borrowed a lot of it. Last night, my students read the article "An analogy for the genome"

And when is the designated day or week for people who blog too much (such as myself) to go back to lurking?

And what is the protocol for suggesting to someone that, although you're not accusing them of trolling, they might appreciate the silent joys of lurking?

The remaining 51 weeks, of course, you are supposed to be quiet and let me talk ;-)

That's what comment moderation and IP bans are for! :-)

Couldn't there be some sort of central repository for delurkification? All of this commenting is keeping me too busy!

I know I've commented before, but still I thought I could jump on this bandwagon and say thanks for blogging. I've always enjoyed your work since before your move to Sb. I guess that means I'll stick around a while--if that's okay.

I think there are quite a few of us who comment rarely but read often. :)

here's a hello for all the times I don't comment, Coturnix.
