@Kristian Andersen In a world where fucking everything has to be in some flashy journal to count, nerding out on anonline forum, fiddling around with data, and geeking out on the science feel quite satisfactory. Plus, no editors orreviewers to deal with - just colleagues.

@Kristian Andersen Hah, yeah. Was on the phone with Oli this morning... Totally forgot there isn't actually a paper.

@Kristian Andersen That was poorly disguised sarcasm.

@Kristian Andersen Typically my specialty. Sometimes I can't even figure out myself if I'm being sarcastic or not. It's confusing to the yankees.
