Seems like it’s been a while (over a year!) since I wrote anything in this space. I was originally going to use CNS ‘08 as an excuse to post something short and uninformative (again) about people w...

I’m in New York for the 2007 annual meeting of the Cognitive Neuroscience Society. CNS alternates between San Francisco and New York; this year it’s in the latter city. I suppose if you have to pic...
