  1. Sorry to hear!

    We’ll try to scratch up only the least valuable furniture in your absence, and give Hili no more than three pints of cream — four, tops.

  3. Indisposed? Hmmm… given today’s Hili dialogue, have you considered ‘cat scratch fever?’

    In my experience, travel is often followed by sickness, since one has being exposed to strange new forms of teeny-tiny life.

  4. Probably too much close contact with students!

    “Doctor, I feel like a pair of curtains!”
    “Well then, pull yourself together!”

    If we are to talk among ourselves, may I suggest this as some light reading for those who have the time?! (not read them myself but they all look interesting, if a bit technical)

    “PhyloSift: phylogenetic analysis of genomes and metagenomes”
    https://peerj.com/articles/243/ (FREE!)

    Also, a review of Bonner’s recent book Randomness in Evolution by Futuyma
    “How Universal Is Natural Selection?”
    http://bioscience.oxfordjournals.org/content/64/1/64.short

    Or…
    “Grafen, the Price equations, fitness maximization, optimisation and the fundamental theorem of natural selection”
    http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10539-013-9412-0#

    Finally what about this non-technical article on Tinbergen, who was of course Richard Dawkins’s mentor
    “Tribute to Tinbergen: The Place of Animal Behavior in Biology”
    http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/eth.12192/full

  5. Hope you feel better soon, Jerry.

      Ah, you’ve been to Britain too?
