katharina: You and Rabbit have a history, you need to remain cognizant of that, and show some restraint.

The article is on the front page of Science, clearly labeled. Simply going to Science's website would make it immediately available to you. Further, so far it has not made it into any of the indexing services (at least as of earlier this morning), so there's no other way to get it.
I suppose I should have assumed you wouldn't do even something that simple, since your previous posts have shown that you did nothing other than look at the NASA press release, engaging in some rather silly speculation instead of taking five seconds on Google to find a source with more technical detail. Then, when I helped fill in the background you were speculating about, you were repeatedly rude. Unsurprisingly, when you then failed to follow up on direct information about where the article could be found in favor of being rude yet again, I got a bit testy.

I find that people are actually less cordial and more selfish when in cold temperatures. Maybe hatrack needs to warm up instead? (not too warm though)

Hmm. It is December. Mayhap that has something to do with it. (That may just be my geographic bias talking though).

Raymond, even here in sunny SoCal, I find myself considerably crankier in the winter months. (In my case, this is largely because of my allergies, though.)

(Rabbit, I've never seen you rant before, and I hated seeing you do it now. You were such a wonderful person to meet in real life, of course I would want you to come back, whenever you are ready.
Is everything else OK? I hate to play pop psychologist, but seeing you blow up like that makes me anxious that perhaps you are dealing with things that are very difficult. If you want to talk please don't hesitate to email me. I can't tolerate you attacking posters directly, but I don't blame you for needing to vent, I just want to make sure you are doing alright.
Hope if all is not well, that it will become so. I'm sorry if I had to remove your rant, but it can't serve any positive purpose remaining visible for all to read.)

@Rabbit: I don't begrudge you the opportunity to vent. I believe you had legitimate reason to be annoyed (not THAT annoyed but apparently there's other stuff going on as well), but I've found in the past that when I posted something like that, I usually regretted it. (Sometimes I get it out of my system by posting it, then deleting it shortly after and hoping nobody notices).

I had a similar experience in Florida. "Winter" of course is a rather loose term (it's really "the 10 degrees cooler 4 month block that follows Hurricane season"). I got random rashes that at first I thought had to do with my roommate's cat, but went away and then came back next year at the same time.

I'm sorry to do this, but I feel it necessary to lock this thread for now, so that Rabbit does not have to endure any sort of speculation/repercussions regarding her last post. Again, I'm sorry to have to lock a thread that was dealing with such a wonderful scientific development. It's a shame it couldn't be discussed civilly.
