Hi Yvette,

Apologies, but your interpretation of my suggestion is extremely misguided
and flat-out wrong.  My response was a cleaver way of saying that you can
ignore the silly responses of particular ECO-LOGGERS (some of which have a
track record of this behavior) by filtering your emails. Unfortunately
your email has added fuel to a series of ECOLOG posts that have very
little to do with the original premise of the Blickley et al. (2012).
Let's all move on now.


Cheers,
Julian
