Jade,
Just FYI, 'cause I know you're new here, but you'll likely need to find a great deal of patience waiting for an answer from Dr. Bob. Posting that one post may be the only time he's making for Babble right now. Over the past, say, six months to a year or so, his personal participation has evolved to where he is typically absent from the boards for weeks at a time. Sometimes more than a month. Deputies have ways to contact him if we feel something is escalating beyond our abilities, an emergency (e.g., threat of suicide), etc., but other than that... :-( We aren't all necessarily happy about that evolution, but that is how it is now.
Of course, announcing a research project *is* unusual and we can all only hope he chooses to make time to check back on that thread. But there are no guarantees whatsoever. His life seems to be a very, very busy one that does not include Babble as a top priority at this time.
I am just speculating, based on Dr. Bob's recent habits and this is my opinion, nothing more. Just hated to think of you innocently checking back for his answer on same day...if that happens...well...knock me over with a feather...!
I suppose anything is possible, though :-)
