I am proud to announce that my post, "Who scribbled all over Darwin's work?", was selected for inclusion in the 3rd (2008) edition of The Open Laboratory. You can see a list of all the winners here , and I am pleased to see that my post will be printed alongside work from many of my favorite science bloggers. Congratulations are also due to Bora, Jennifer Rohn, and the judges, who have worked so hard on this project!
[As an aside, I am glad that this year I had no idea when the winning entries would be announced. Last year I was pacing the floor the night the results were scheduled to be announced, and I surely would have been doing the same this year if I knew the date the winning entries would be revealed!]

Good to know not to announce the time in advance, save someone from heart-attack perhaps ;-)
First of all, hearty congratulations!
(I'd more or less forgotten about it until I heard that I was in it. Now, I have to devote today's blogo-time, which would otherwise have gone to finishing a much-delayed book review, into redoing the figures. Oh, and to figuring out what exactly the formatting instructions are asking for!)
Yay!
