The referents in Leo's page are buggin' me. What's the (4) in the first one, for example?

Leo Kane:
FAIRBANK JA, GROSS RT, KEANE TM
TREATMENT OF POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER - EVALUATING OUTCOME WITH A BEHAVIORAL CODE
BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION 7 (4): 557-568 1983

some webpage:
18. Fairbank, J.A., Gross, R.T., & Keane, T.M. (1983). Treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder: Evaluating outcome with a behavioral code. Behavior Modification, 7, 557-568.


Go ahead, throw the Chicago style manual at me. I don't care!

I don't think it's anything, as it appears on PubMed's site as well.

I was thinking PubMed IDs (PubMed being a first hit on some of them)....but can't find the third one there, and didn't check further than the fourth.

(i.e.)
1. PMID: 6679308
2. PMID: 11063771
3. ?
4. PMID: 3988386

Thanks, at least I won't waste time on the "mysterious numbers".

I'm reading through the old mailbags now, and I keep giggling uncontrollably. I love you guys.

[edited]I can't believe I got my sig quote mixed up. Hee, I guess I also really like "The is that is now and the is that will be are not the same as the is that once was." Such depth.

Back atcha, baby. Trust me, every time we were going to do a Wongmo update, Wolf would cut and paste some of the material into our sekrit IRC channel, and we would just laugh and laugh and laugh. At Gino's East the other night, we were totally cracking up over you guys trying to pin down the Wongmo = Marcus Ormond spec, and how you were trying to get mlo's password from the Mo of Wong ...

Good times, good times.


ETA: Thanks, Scrappy! I figured it was something easy like that, but I was also looking for a KLOO. Also! I was worried that there were like, 11 articles, and phone numbers are ten digits with the area code ...

5. Couldn't find it on PubMed, did find the site reference
6. Journal of Traumatic Stress doesn't appear to go back to 1992... i'm questioning Dr MR Wong... too similar to Wong MO
7. Guessed on the journal name as being Psychotherapeutica... which ended in 1986. No other close journal names (according to pubmed) exist

still searching...

Yep, Gino's. Yummy.

Krystyn + me + Gino's pizza + trying to explain the whole game thing to people who weren't familiar with it + reminiscing about Wongmo = good times.

Luckily the others who were with us were quick studies and didn't think we were nuts for *too* long. They actually got the concept.

Four things I notice on Leo's page:

1) The years in the citations are bolded. Why?

2) There's some emphasis on numbers (years) implied by this:

Quote:
The years of publication range from early, seminal works on the subject all the way up to recent publications that express the current state-of-the-art.


That's stating the obvious, so why mention it?

3) Unlike the original, the quote at the top of the page is static. In our version, the quote changed each time you refreshed the page, and...

4) There is a David Douglas who was a botanist, but I can't find either of the parts of the quote attributed to him.
