Dear Tao,

My PhD thesis involves (among other things) distance measurements to stars (SRc variables, to be exact), so it's one of the things I've been obsessing about lately. (Someone could totally figure out who I am with that piece of information!) And I just wanted to say that your answer was very well-written, accurate, and readable.

It means a lot to me to hear that. It really does. While everything usually comes together well in my head, I worry how it all comes across in writing.
