I'm very impressed with your ingenuity and persistence--and the math, of course. Then and now. Reminds me of one of my biology profs who, allegedly spent decades researching the stomach enzymes of certain moths. (Keep in mind this alleged activity was told to me some 60 years ago.) It was then that I realized I was in the wrong major.
Reading about all your contraptions, odiums, and atriums, I am wondering if you are an inventor masquerading as an entomologist or vice versa? So clever and productive.
I so enjoy reading your reporting about investigating the mysteries of our fellow creatures' life cycles. I also appreciate the memories it brings back of Biology at FSU. Your enthusiasm and sense of inquiry was cheerfully infectious as a student. It has lasted these many years and I thank you for this, as many often do.
Thank you, Mary Liz, for the positive recollections. Good to hear the "infection" held for all these years. I am still suffering from that disease (smile).
Brings back fond memories of the Tschinkeltorium.
...indeed.. and all the other -oriums and -ariums.

Excellent teacher, excellent students and auditors. Science is wonderful.

Can I be both? Thanks for the compliment. If you come up with questions, you ought to come up with ways to answer them, right?
