MB– thanks, and thanks for running the contest.

Phil– not me. Physics seems a mite under-represented this year, to be honest.

And I think we should be “variances,” not “variants.” Might make a good discussion topic.

Off topic– are any of you cosmic variants in St. Louis for the AAAS meeting? If so, drop me an email! I’d love to meet up. -Phil

No, you were definitely nominated and have been added to the list. I had you on it, then my computer crashed, and, well, needless to say, I’m sorry for the error.

Sean – I’m sure the most important reason for “cosmic variance” not being on the short list of expert blogs is that they did not have the experts to review it

Best, Kasper
