Given the reviews I got back on a recent manusript, it seems that people are having a hard time grasping the main point of a recent study I did. I thought it might be a useful exercise to write a concise version of that result here and see if I can get the point across.

Humans often get enjoyment from visual experiences, and can readily express preferences for some images over others. Whether in an art museum or driving down a highway, some things we see grab us more than others. The sc... read more

On Monday, I finally heard back from a journal that has been reviewing a manuscript I submitted back in January. Yes, it has taken this journal 7 months to get initial reviews back to me. Their official policy is 2-3 months. And the result .. outright rejection by the editor, w/ no invitation for submitting a revised version (despite the fact that both reviewers gave suggestions for revision and stated their willingness to consider a revised ms). On top of that, the editor misstated the m... read more

Some smooth tunes from a smooth guy, and he's a PhD! I'm glad him and Tamale are staying in NYC.

Ed is a nutcase... Keep him away from glowsticks or he may hypnotize you with his skillz... Beware of his low inhibitions and ablity to flow... Overexposure to Ed may be hazardos to your ability to remain uptight and in control... Ed rocks.

A mad scientist with some mad skills who's into tamales... I'll take him. =^.^=
