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

Random Quote
The attack on the peasant economy was accompanied by a fierce campaign against the Orthodox Church, the center of traditional peasant culture, which was seen by the Stalinist leadership as one of the main obstacles to collectivization.
[Alan Bullock, "Hitler and Stalin: Parallel Lives" (Alfred A. Knopf, 1992, ISBN 0-394-58601-8), p. 264, in the chapter "Stalin's Revolution", showing that Stalin's motivation for destroying churches was because of their threat to his political plans and not communistic "atheism"]

Cephalopods Rule

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.
