The paper that was supposed to be out nearly a week ago is finally on the PNAS site. This isn't the first time this has cropped up.

Busy week here, as Eric attempts to wind up his online teaching class, my parents descend for a week of family projects and fair going, and we deal with the daily realities of a rapidly-onrushing fall, complicated (happily) by a long trip and an early Jewish holiday season. So I give you something…

Vacation or no vacation, something's bubbled up in the comments that I consider worth commenting about. If you remember (or even if you don't), about a week and a half ago I wrote about how Dr. Bob Sears, author of The Vaccine Book: Making the Right Choice for Your Child, has let the mask drop. I…
Wow! it's almost like they owe you.
I think the PNAS site is really hard to navigate. A friend of mine accidentally linked to a 2000 paper on TB genes thinking it was the latest!
