I'm telling you exactly that. Pretty crazy that the ray falls between the bat and the other mammalian samples.

They are really having a go at Australia at the moment. Soft target and really stupid. They are losing the plot a bit.

Well, Aussies are easy targets because they can take the heat - "Fuck it you nitwit - heading to the beach and then it's out for a pint with me mates"

We fucking can! It's been in the 40s here. And here's a bit of fun about that rubella paper published in Nature the other week...we just sequenced some more fish including an electric ray. Sorry the tree is shit but we just did it. And the rooting in that paper is wrong. [shared file(s): rubella.trimmed.fasta.tree.png]

Wait, are you telling me that that paper I rejected for Nature but that Nature decided to go ahead with anyway might have rooted their tree incorrectly? I did tell them to be careful with their conclusions...

I don't understand evolution - it's so weird...

Must be a bat-eating ray. Fuck knows.
