the interns have left, which is as sure a sign as leaves turning that summer is dissolving into fall. we had a guest prof from wayne state U over this week to host some lectures and discussions for the aging group, so it was all commotion upstairs and relative quiet for our team. i shattered that quiet for myself midweek by discovering that i had used a formula in error when analysing the results for my experiment, and for a while it was recomputation and hair-tearing and e-mails to statisticians and the reviewers. this is when you get when you unleash ignorant people (i.e. myself) into academia.
and friday was the first of many goodbyes, to justin, over tequila shots, and game theory, and ruefulness that this country has such a death grip on the people it so purportedly loves. who was it who said that letting go was the key?
