The Café Scientifique was very well done and informative tonight—so where were all you guys? Of course, what the event really meant was that it's nearly 9:00, I've been running around all day, the alarm goes off tomorrow morning at 5:45AM, I teach at 8:00, and somehow I've got to explain MHC and T-cell receptors to a class full of sleepy students…and I've scarcely cracked the textbook today. So I'm tuning out for a while, to return again after a brief night's rest.

Random Quote
At the age of eighteen … I read Mill's Autobiography, where I found a sentence to the effect that his father taught him that the question 'Who made me?' cannot be answered, since it immediately suggests the further question 'Who made God?'. This led me to abandon the 'First Cause' argument, and to become an atheist. Throughout the long period of religious doubt, I had been rendered very unhappy by the gradual loss of belief, but when the process was completed, I found to my surprise that I was quite glad to be done with the whole subject.
[Bertrand Russell, Autobiography, chap. 2]

5.45? Good [lack of] Lord!
I can see dragging oneself painfully out of bed at that hour to make the occasional miserable trek to the airport for an early flight. But as a habit? When do you turn in?
Of course, it makes sense that you would like ungodly hours....

Perhaps with a little more notice (like a week or two) I may surprise you by driving up from Minneapolis.
