My scientific specialty is chronobiology (circadian rhythms and photoperiodism), with additional interests in comparative physiology, animal behavior and evolution. I am not an MD so I cannot diagnose and treat your sleep problems. As well as writing this blog, I am also the Online Discussion Expert for PLoS. This is a personal blog and opinions within it in no way reflect the policies of PLoS. You can contact me at: Coturnix@gmail.com

I came to your blog from Effect Measure about couple of weeks ago. Congratulations!

I like your simple job description-'My job is to try to motivate you to comment on the papers'. And also like PLoS's core values, especially the internationality. I hope that your crowd will cover global' creative minority'; particularly to non-English speaking areas- Europe, Japan, Taiwan, Korea, etc. I mean not necessary in number of your crowd, nevertheless in depth and diversity of cultural backgrounds.

After my compliment to you, a simple request, not forces you, please understand; please visit www.ucc.org for reading Science and Religion dialogues.

Monumentous and superb to Blog Around the Clock!

Amend my first post of this thread: I came across to this blog, not I came to. Sorry for the confusion.

"[...]my SciBlings are Excellent by definition[...]

Not only is this blog Excellent, the blogger behind it all is highly intuitive, as well, I see. Additionally, I'm pretty sure that I read every science blog here and the term 'Excellent' fits the bill, by golly. I'd like to also add that the "Clock" is a great representative of the rest of the family. You're all great! Plus that, I knew that you'd be gracious enough to accept the award.

Thanks for being such a good egg, kiddo, and congratulations!
