Gary Taubes responds 17. November 2008, DR EADES BLOG A couple of weeks ago I posted that Gary Taubes had agree to answer questions from readers of this blog. Over a hundred readers sent in questions through the comment section. Many of these questions were actually multiple questions, so Gary ended up with probably 200+ questions to deal with. I've gone through and compiled a list ...

Braf: As a matter of principle I do not respond to 'wall of text' portions of replies directed at me. So I will not be doing a point-by-point response to your rambling blather about having a photographic memory, taking Calculus notes, keeping notes in a trapper keeper, typing out descriptions of what is in said notes(as you said you retrieved said Trapper Keeper and have it in front of you), ...

@So it restores your subjective and religious based definition of marriage(the same reason the Mormon church and catholic churches got heavily involved in it). Now tell me why the state needs to legislate that, when there is a separation of church and state. Why should the state definition of marriage be forced into line with the religious definition of marriage? Because there's a religious ...

Je crois que vous realisez bien que ce n'est pas par cette votre breve phrase qu'on peut vous donner raison.

Each subspecies has a number of '...

Scientists have decoded the complete DNA of a cancer patient and traced her disease to its genetic roots. The Washington University team identified 10 gene mutations which appeared key to the development of the woman's acute myeloid leukaemia. Just two of these had been linked to the disease before. The sequencing technique, described in the journal Nature, could be applied to other ...

They don't turn racist in one day. They obviously can. Someone could turn racist in 5 minutes by having a "Bad" encounter with someone of another race. Speaking from experience? I'm not even going to say it this time Jakey :D It is just more obvious. People who are ALREADY racist and are mad about a black president are just more willing to just talk on WN. Frankly...

Vampire Moth Discovered -- Evolution at Work John Roach for National Geographic News October 27, 2008 A previously unknown population of vampire moths has been found in Siberia. And in a twist worthy of a Halloween horror movie, entomologists say the bloodsuckers may have evolved from a purely fruit-eating species. Only slight variations in wing patterns distinguish the ...

Michael Shermer, author of several critical thinking books and founding publishe of Skeptic magazine, attended a lecture conference called "The City of Ideas" in Puebla, Mexico. He blogged on the variety of speakers, and I thought this entry was interesting. "The geneticist Dean Hamer, discoverer of the gay gene, the god gene, and the men-dont-ask-for-directions gene, asked What ...

Hey, everyone. “Moriarty” here. Robert Davi’s been a fairly constant presence in film for most of the time I’ve been a film fan. And, appropriately for a kid who watched a ton of TV as a seven, eight, nine year old, Davi moved from theater into TV right around those years for me. I didn't know he was trained by Stella Adler. I didn't appreciate that he was part of the New York...
