Welcome two new skeptical blogs to the blogosphere

With the latest edition of the Skeptics' Circle due to appear later today, I'd just like to point out that I've become aware of two new skeptical blogs:

Action Skeptics (I like its catchphrase, "Annoying stupid people, one woo at a time.")

The Antidote: Counterspin for Health Care and Health News

They're worth checking out, and I'll keep an eye on them to see how they develop. And while we're at it, I would be remiss if I didn't mention another skeptical blog belonging to someone who's become a frequent commenter here. That's right, I mean Amy Alkon, a.k.a. The Advice Goddess, who runs a pretty mean blog of her own.

I would be remiss in my duties as organizer of the Skeptics' Circle if I were to forget to remind you that it won't be long before the next Skeptics' Circle comes around the pike. Indeed, the next meeting of the Skeptics' Circle will appear on Thursday, December 6 and will be hosted by Pro-Science…
This is an adaptation of the talk I gave at Westminster Skeptics in the Pub on Monday 2nd August. You can hear an audio transcript of the talk at the Pod Delusion website. I was invited to stage the talk again at the Winchester SITP, a recording of which is here. I'm very much a child of the…

Thank you kindly for the mention, Orac. Imagine me (difficult, I know, as you've never met me) as a cowboy, tipping the brim of my hat in your direction. Or, rather, as Captain Malcolm Reynolds, smiling and nodding. He's much cooler than any cowboy. We'll do our best over at Action Skeptics to live up to that catchphrase.

Much appreciate the mention... now I understand the 75 unique hits I got that day when I was on vacation, playing with my baby nieces, and doing nothing at all with the blog.

Cheers!
