Canada is not a "free society"
March 24, 2010
That's all I have to say to Eric Michael Johnson's post, Ann Coulter, Hate Speech, and Free Societies. OK, seriously, from what I recall Eric is an American, though resident in the forgotten north. American absolutist stances on free speech are not shared by most Western societies, so demanding…

A Math Museum?!
Hands on Science Museums are some of my favorites. When I travel I like to look up if the city I am going to has a Science Museum and check it out. Some of my favorite exhibits are usually in the physics and math types of areas with cool lasers or how you can use lenses to teach how light diffracts, but a Math Museum, where it is dedicated to JUST math?? That sounds pretty awesome too! Meet…
The On Line Response to the Democratic Primary Debate
Here, without comment, is a handful of screen grabs showing the results (at the time I grabbed them, Wed AM) of several on line polls asking who won last night's Democratic Party presidential debate in Las Vegas. Note: For most polls, I needed to vote first to see the results. I voted alternately for Sanders and Clinton in doing so.
