Talk:ultradian

Comparative and superlative

Makes no sense to me! If something cycles oftener than once a day, for example the tides, it's ultradian. Whether it cycles two, four, twelve or many more times a day, it's still ultradian. No more, no less. Anything cycling, whatever the period, is either ultradian or it's not. How can one cycle be more ultradian than another?

(There may be some borderline examples, but that's another question. I'm concerned here with the many possible ultradian cycles, which definitively are that.) --Hordaland 12:13, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
