Can I ask how you found my LJ? I make so few public posts...

Hi. Sorry to take so long to answer; another comment that got delayed by LJs mailing system (or whatever it is that holds these up).

I noticed too you attended Nottingham and Tübingen, and that resonated because my lab was full of folks from those universities.

Ha, I was lucky my username was still available. Surprised someone else didn't jump on that one first.
