I've been busy. The second JCP article was finally published. I got an e-mail from them about a survey ``quality of author support''. I chose to ignore it. they have my e-mails.

Also, our fast magnetic reconnection paper was published on thursday. There was at least a three month delay in the publication of this paper just because of the reviewers. And other things.

In any case, we're now watching for comments and feedback. Among other things, this made me find out about an interesting blog thing. Personally, I wouldn't name my blog that until after I got my PhD, but I'm just lame that way.

otherwise, spring is finally here. too much sun, so big motivation to stay inside with the head stuck in the computer. kind of.
