Some frauds at the journal Science Daily have published a study seeking to show that what they call “the brain” (the wrinkly thing in skull) has to “spit” to stay alive. It oozes blood every now and then to get rid of “debris.” This fantastical brain-of-the-gaps theory is an attempt to keep traditional brain science [...]

Many of you have by now read the New York Times article about Jonathan Krohn. For his sting operation against the Republicans as a deep cover liberal, the timing couldn’t have been more perfect. Just after I (the first one!) break the story that he is a hoax, he gets a major credibility boost from [...]

Some people don’t like Christmas. Twice. Or Chanukah. But some people, who are (if you can believe it) even more shameless, have decided to capitalize on Christmas by opening the old wounds of terrorism. Here is the proof. Can you believe it? As if insulting science wasn’t enough, these people now want to insult Christmas! [...]

As you no doubt have heard, IBM has begun taking over the sky, consildating corporate and educational power, and attempting world domination and mind control. This should worry everyone. Unlike Google, IBM does not have a good human rights record. What can be done about this monstrosity? Perhaps nothing. The end may be near.

Probability is false. Imagine the following scenario: You and Dominique Jones are great friends in 2nd grade. Then, twenty years later, Dominique moves to Venezuela and loans a Noam Chomsky book to Hugo Chavez. Then, you become a custodian for a small high school. Then, you win the lottery – without even buying a ticket. [...]
Dark matter? (part one)

Did you know that the concept of “Dark Matter” was actually invented by primarily American novelists? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_matter_in_fiction Belief in Dark Matter has roughly the same validity as a small child’s belief that there is a monster in his closet. He can’t see anything, his parents aren’t home, the closet is dark, and its properties don’t [...]
