[edit] Huh!!??

Sure glad we have TWO cited references for the profound intro paragraph here: "An eicosanoid receptor is a receptor which detects eicosanoids." Gene Nygaard (talk) 22:31, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your note. Indeed the lead of the article was a little ridiculous, in part, because out of laziness I deleted some of the original text. I have re-added and re-worded this text to emphasize that the two cited references are meant to document that the majority of these receptors are G protein-coupled and more importantly to document the list of eicosanoid GPCRs which follows these two citations in this article.

Thanks. I wasn't overly concerned about it, it just struck me as a little funny. Glad you noticed my comment and acted on it--and despite my comment, I was glad to see the references there anyway in the first place. Gene Nygaard (talk) 09:00, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
