I LOVE listening to your discussions of journal papers! I have learned a lot, and chuckled a lot. My daughter (an epidemiologist at JHU) and I listened to about 30 episodes while driving from Baltimore to San Diego, and it was a great way to pass the time. I do have to say, though, for professors and doctors sometimes you guys are like 6th graders, lol.
