Thanks, everyone.
Wandering back in (yet again).
Wow. It's been quite awhile since I've posted. Life = busy, crazy, shitty, argh. Managed to completely forget about Intensity.
Shame on me. 
That's quite a skill you acquired.
Selective memory. I swear I'm getting Alzheimery.
Uh-oh. You've heard of me? Is that a bad thing or a good thing?
Hard to tell on Intensity.
Btw, I should mention that my handle is "Sophist", not "Soph", which is another online member. In case you're confusing my infamy. 
Good things. Soph never left, so no confusing you for him.
Ah, kk. Good I haven't been confused. It's happened quite a bit in the past, having to stand in his limelight.
(I mean that as a compliment to Soph.)
Hi Sophist. Hope the courses are going well.
Courses finished, although roughly. Now it's just the dissertation, and my committee is making my life hell. I still haven't secured funding and my department is threatening to chuck me if I don't produce results. (My department sucks ass and enjoys making threats.) But at least I've been productive as far as publications. Just authored a review paper for Translational Neuroscience, which I'm really proud of. It was a lot of work, a lot of time researching, reading, thinking, and then writing. Took quite awhile, but it's a good paper with a broad scope and fresh ideas in it. It's a shame not as many people appreciate it because they don't have a background in molecular biology.
Kinda makes sharing my excitement difficult when they don't know what I'm talking about.
Holy shit , I was saying the other day Sophist should come back. 
Not sure if you remember me , I registered shortly after you joined as "Squid_Thing" , 
back anyway. 
Wow. I'm honored I've been remembered. I know people realize when I go missing on my own forum but didn't realize they did on others. Thanks.
