“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”
Does anyone remember a hilarious low-budget 90s comedy film called Down Periscope, starring Kelsey Grammer and Lauren Holly? I do – quite well, actually. It’s a funny, if inconsistent and somewhat badly acted, film: The trailer is actually almost as funny...
For those of you who have been wondering why the output around here has slowed so dramatically over the past few weeks, it is not merely because I have been busy with work and other things. The truth is that I was sick as a dog for about 2 weeks. The symptoms all...

As you can probably guess, I’ve been RIDICULOUSLY busy this week – I was up until 1am writing a massive report and putting together the graphics (I do love myself some R code, especially the ggplot2 package), and generally wracking my brains until my head...
