Housekeeping
I am working on a post covering three (excellent) recent Drosophila clock-genetics papers and I am trying not to mention a single gene in it - just the historical, methodological, behavioral and ecological context of the results. It will appear later today/tonight. We'll see how it turns out.
I have lined up ClockQuotes for the weekend, but I intend to be very busy so there may not be much or anything else posted - it is not really worth the effort when the traffic falls down to 50% over the weekend.
The doc who put my shoulder back is a genius. It never happened before that I never needed…

I am teaching tonight (and preparing for the lecture today) so there will be very light blogging today, naked or not (tune in tomorrow).
I am also struggling with writing the cover letter for PLoS. I have never written (or even read) a cover letter before so I asked some friends for samples of theirs and it makes me really uncomfortable how self-advertising they are supposed to be: me, me, me. I have as big ego as anyone, but writing a couple of pages about how great I am just rubs me wrong. I'll keep trying...

Is it something about wholeness? Or milestones? But we certainly do like round numbers.
Of course, our numbers are social constructs. Our days and years are determined by the planet we are living on. Our number system is decimal presumably because we all start our early-years arithmetic by counting on our fingers - of which, on the last count, there are ten.
I remember back in middle school, I was actually quite good at math (my strength was in coming up with short, elegant solutions for geometry problems, but I also did well on logic, not so well on algebra), going to math competitions…

Apologies for the radio silence this week. The weather has been crazy here and power was off over the weekend, during which, unfortunately, I was also trying to move into a new house (moving during an ice storm: not recommended, by the way). Then I got into a fight with some of our downed tree branches and lost...don't ask. Anyway, I do have a post on tap for later today and hopefully things will be back to some semblance of normal next week.
