Yeah - it's so distracting - I have to talk to a local reporter about Mardi Gras/Omicron now - plenty of opportunity toget in more trouble there.

In context

A single line often inverts meaning once you see what it answers, so neighbouring messages are always shown.

    Yeah, the email chains - and especially the Google Doc history - show the whole process very well. It's exactly whatwe have always been saying. But only reasonable people would understand that - i.e., <50% of the US public.

    I expect ALL of this will become public at some point. The GOP will take the house later this year by which time myself and Bob will find ourselves subpoenad to appear in front of congress. Because of this, it's _ultra_ importantwe don't give them any further fodder - just pointing out when they're wrong, but without giving any further details than those already known.

    Yup - focus on the science. (plus, we got a grant to write... :wink: )

    BTW - the Intercept actually said they would do a correction/clarification...

    I would strongly suggest not replying to that - if you do, use the version Andrew drafted. Also, Wade is back at the NYT? What a disgrace.

    Seems he's back.
