A nice surprise in the comments: Oliver Sacks and I have something in common. That's one of my favorite shirts, too.

The pragmatic suggestion, that we had better teach the Christian religion whether it is true or not, because people will be much less criminal if they believe it, is disgusting and degrading; but it is being made to us all the time, and it is a natural consequence of the fundamental religious attitude that comfort and security must always prevail over rational inquiry.

It's strange: ever since I read one of Sacks' books, everybody seems to be mentioning him.

PZ - as a cephalopod fanatic you may enjoy a fine SF novel by Stephen Baxter entitled "Manifold: Time" (first of a trilogy). It features genetically enhanced squid (already smart but a hand up can't hurt) piloting interstellar craft and evolving among the stars.
