It's always horrible when experiments give a scientist ambiguous results, but sometimes the results of the ambiguity are really nice. I have ambiguous results which means that experiments are put on pause to design some more and different experiments to shed some light on the confusion. The result of that is that I get to spend at least a few days here in Merced. I have 1 technician who needs some help with her own strange results, 2 manuscripts to revise, and 3 undergrads who need some attention. I am also very tired as I have gone for days without much sleep. It is good to be back in Merced for a while.

down time
I wasn't sure whether I'd be working in San Diego at Scripps, in Palo Alto at PARC, or in Merced next week. All have their advantages. At Scripps is an instrument I need to use, in Palo Alto is another instrument I need to use, and in Merced is my own bed which I have been missing.

I was so happy and surprised to see you yesterday! We were definitely beneficiaries of your ambiguous results!
Oh Miriam! Bless you! I think Salt Lake also has an instrument you could use in your experiments. All you have to do is get on a plane and fly. . . here!!
