Andy: Right on man. Congrats. First author even! How long did the refereeing process take? I've heard it can take a couple of years, but dunno cause I've never submitted anything to a journal.
Austin: I have to give Dr. Barrett all the credit for that. I have no idea what kind of work went in to getting it there.
Andy: Haha ok... I was wondering cause I've heard sometimes referees are really picky and want extensive revisions before publishing something, so I was wondering if you had to deal with that. Anyhow, pretty sweet, hope you got a copy of the journal so you can pull it off your bookshelf and impress people (dunno who, but you know, it's still cool)
Austin: Dr. Barrett was nice enough to send me a copy too :)
BreakmastaJake: I don't know crap about referees and all that jazz. But congrats!
