    Imagine my surprise when I checked my email this morning and found the project was FULLY FUNDED! Hooray! Thank you all so much for your contributions. I will have to get started on all those lovely rewards to send out to you generous people.

    Hi Brian! Best of luck! Hope you get all the money you need for your project! I'm excited for your updates. Can you name my clam Ryan? : )

    Ryan is a great clam name! Once the Scifund project is over or the project is funded I will be sending out the rewards and collecting info for the sponsor a clam reward. But by naming the clam here I think you called dibs on the name.

    Awesome! I'm dedicating the clam to someone I know who is crazy for clams! : ) Again I hope you get all the funding for your project because it sounds very interesting. I think crabs and clams are really cool and your topic is very interesting! I'm a friend of Tiffany's by the way, that's how I found out about your project. Good luck and looking forward to know more about your project and how it develops! : D

    Sounds like a great project. I'm looking forward to the results. The presence of Andy Lamb's Marine Life of the PNW on the lab desk and your commitment to getting undergrads Voodoo doughnuts totally swayed me. Go science!

    Glad you liked it. I was going for an art house kind of feel, then gave up and used puppets.
