Buongiorno readers! One revolution ago, I began a journey I certainly didn't anticipate... For a week I was to 'guest host' this Scienceblog called 'The Intersection' while Chris was away in Italy. And so began my first post:

And then something unexpected happened--I never left. And nothing's been the same ever since! So on this day in May, I'd like to thank readers for contributing to the ongoing discussion, providing thoughtful perspective, and keeping me on my toes as I've wandered down the rabbit hole into cyberland. Most of all of course, thank you Chris for bringing me here, inspiring new ideas, and keeping this gig fun! As well as a colleague, you've become a trusted friend and there's no one I'd rather be writing alongside everyday. All I can say is... And readers, we've got more exciting plans to share over the coming months so keep an eye to the blog!
