Another dignified and ancient TO regular joins the blogosphere

Category: Weblogs
Posted on: October 27, 2008 11:07 AM, by PZ Myers

Old hands at the usenet group talk.origins will recall Chris Nedin well — and now he has entered the blogosphere with his brand new blog, Ediacaran, a blog about paleontology and all the other things that waft through the mind of a science geek. Go say hello!

Yeah, but how can he be trusted?

Welcome, Ediacaran!

Speaking of T.O., when are you coming to Toronto and do you and Skatje want a ride from the airport?

Pls notify Mssr. Nedin that there seems to be a glitch in his blog's software. My attempt to submit a comment was blocked by a request to key in a verification string (quite routine in itself) - but no verification letters were displayed...

Just what has happened to TO? I used to eagerly look forward to reading the "letters to the editors" section, but alas that seems to be long dead.

I haven't seen any sign of life there for around 2 years now.

Fixed (I hope) - unless your comments weren't complimentary, in which case it's still broken!

Thanks for the link PZ. It seems old TOers never die, they just block up the blogosphere . . .

Alas, Mssr. Nedin, my (non-uncomplimentary*) remarks still can't get through. No spamblocker barrier this time - it's just that clicking either "Post" or "Preview" yields results no different from "Reload" (using Firefox 3.0.3 under Mac OSX 10.4.11, fwltw).

*Unless a speculation about using dishonest election-rigging tactics as a counterstrategy to an inherently weak political position is considered equivalent to, say, disparaging your wardrobe?

Ah, yes, I remember it well. We were all named Chris back in the glory days of T.O. and the U. of E.
