I am the Online Community Manager at PLoS ONE. My scientific specialty is chronobiology (circadian rhythms and photoperiodism), with additional interests in comparative physiology, animal behavior and evolution. I am not an MD so I cannot diagnose and treat your sleep problems. This is a personal blog and opinions within in no way reflect the policies of PLoS ONE. You can contact me at: Coturnix@gmail.com

The obligatory reading of the day: That right-wing logic:

OK, so I laughed at this one. Because this is what passes for logic not just among rural hicks, but nearly the entire right wing in this country.

Comments

I'm no right-wing apologist, but I've heard plenty of fellow liberals compare Bush to Hitler, or the NSA to the SS.

Stereotyping is done on both sides, and it's important to call bullshit on *anyone* who says this kind of crap.

Quite so, Chris. And I think we now have some evidence that the stronger one's identification with side A of some divisive issue, the stronger the tendency to suspend deliberate use of words or close inspection of side B and just start tarring them with labels that amount to "bad and evil" and do not inform.
