Last week I had to cancel a @Delta international flight because federal funding for my @Fulbright award was rescinded. I need "proof of cancellation" but @Delta seems incapable of providing it. A little help, please?! #customerservice #Delta #sciencefunding #cutbacks

#UWMadison is the top public university in the nation, according to Washington @monthly, boosted by strong scores in metrics measuring a school’s contribution to the public good.

Say it loud, say it proud: On, Wisconsin!

Aldo Leopold moved from Arizona to #Madison, WI in 1924, bringing with him a treasured #clivia plant. 100 years later, this 6th generation cutting - gifted from a friend - is blooming for the first time! #aldoleopold @UWMadison

@jackcschultz Wow! I will!

[Rick Lindroth @RickLindroth]

@jackcschultz My preference is more about habitat than species - coldwater spring creeks and streams vs lakes. But I’d like to try pike sometime; can be a thrill.

[Rick Lindroth @RickLindroth]

@jackcschultz It’s my late-in-life passion. But almost entirely trout waters, of which there are plenty nearby.

[Rick Lindroth @RickLindroth]

@jackcschultz Nice! Flies as in actual flyfishing? That would be a hoot!!

@alan_townsend @annasproul @maddiecalls My copy is enroute. Can’t wait to read such a work of courage, humility, and love

[Rick Lindroth @RickLindroth]

@karst_justine All excellent questions!

[Rick Lindroth @RickLindroth]

@karst_justine Same! Except I have a few more years than you.

@StevenDAllison @buildingdecarb @ocregister I put in a system 1.5 yrs ago. Working great. Though in cold climates (Wisconsin) must still be coupled to conventional furnace for cold days.

@BethMooreLPM I’ve greatly appreciated your moral courage and ethical voice in recent years. But only now feel compelled to reply. Love this. The experience is great, but your response is even better!

@NKWhiteman Wow, fascinating! Quercetin is ubiquitous. This raises several important questions:
1. Can cats, who have deficient glucuronidation metabolism, drink red wine with impunity?
2. Should we not eat flavonoid-rich foods -like grapes- when drinking beer? But who does that anyway?
