Big, enthusiastic Congratulations to Dani Eastick on her first, first-author publication.

Cassowaries, and perhaps some Dinosaurs, used such appendages for
heat exchange with the environment, conserving body heat at low temperatures
and off-loading 8% of all body heat at the highest temperatures. Well done, Dani!
