However, since I&#8217;ve all but abandoned the crumbling Babel that is Livejournal and instead worship at the golden calf called Twitter, there hasn&#8217;t been much news of me on the internets.

Working at a research lab is good for that, actually, as we often have casual discussions that spin easily off into more elaborate analyses of the subject. Presumably, that&#8217;s my lot in life.
