Mother, Professor: Mofessor. I think I'm funny; you may not. I study online groups and virtual communities, but I am NOT studying you. All typos are the result of my enormous thumbs. All thoughts are my own and, clearly, Reviewer 2 hates them.

This is really good. I'm not kidding. It's testable with data. It predicts the future as opposed to explaining data collected in the past. It predicts 100%! The only 100% things in life are death and taxes. Perfect test of a hypothesis based on no theory. Lets go!

No, seriously. The clay mud is not a problem when it rains. When the clover grows in, we're really going to miss it. I love skating in my own backyard.
