The Proximate Origins Paper

The proximate origins paper was a letter write. It had five authors on it. Four of them were in this february confab, odd days earlier, with fauche and ferrar. And there are a number of other scientists saying very similar things on that call. The major feedback we got from the feb February first tele conference was, one, don't try to write a paper at all. Or two, if you do write it, don't mention a lab origin as that will just add to the conspiracis.
